A parallel structure means that withing the sentence the same structure/scheme is used everywhere. So the correct answer is B. A cannot be correct as you have "BEING honest", "BEING courageous" and then just "compassionate". BEING was deleted. C is also incorrect as you have "BEING honest" and then just nouns "courage" and "compassion" - the structure has changed. It is the same case with D - "IS honest", "IS courageous" and then just "compassionate", without IS. And B is correct because we have three nouns "honesty", "courage", "compassion" - the structure remains the same.

I've always been taught that revising involves checking for spelling, punctuation, and grammar.  Basically any kind of improvements.  Is this one of those questions where you check all that apply?    Revising also includes making sure you have stayed on topic and gives you the chance to remove things that may not really apply or add other things that may have been left out.  It's where the writer truly polishes everything up.
I hope this helps.

KatRina [158]

Your answer would be that a tyrant works with the people whose ideals he or she represents and then seizes total power, sharing none with the supporters. That is the way in which they gain power.

First of all, they act as if they cared about the people and then, after being elected, they do whatever they want with their power: They accept no restrictions and pass laws for their own sake and they even take the law into their own hands.

ElenaW [278]
The answer is materialism. This is evident as the narrator wishes to go to a remote cabin in the woods and essentially live off the land while depriving himself of human contact and engaging with nature. No mention of religion is made in the passage, nor is there any concepts of turmoil that the narrator makes note of. Instead, he talks of his willingness to move to Innisfree, to live in a cabin simply, as he views it as his purpose.
