A is the correct answer. In sentence B, you refers to Jacob. She refers to Carla in sentence C, and in sentence D, our is referenced to "family."

Hello there.

Correct answer is A.

Option B: this could not work. The underlined word is a personal pronoun, but it has a stated antedecent: Jacob, which is a vocative separated by a comma.

Option C: does not work. Carla said (that) she was leaving... "she" is preceded by a reported speech; a reporting verb: say.

Option D: this possesive pronoun "our" is preceded by more information.

Therefore, option A is the best one. "We" is suject the of the sentence, and it does not have anything written before it.

Hope this helps

What is the difference between a fiction story and a drama? Fiction stories are written as a narrative in prose; Dramas are writ
irina [24]

Answer:

Fiction stories are written as a narrative in prose; Dramas are written mainly in dialogue and meant to be performed by actors.

Explanation:

Fiction is a literary work based on imagination rather than on fact. A fiction story is usually written as a prose. It is not written in dialogue form like a drama. A work of fiction may be a novel, short story, etc.

Drama is the performance of written dialogue on a stage. The main difference between drama and fiction lies in the fact that a fiction, unlike drama, is not written as a dialogue to be performed by actors on stage. It is rather written as a prose.

A superstition is usually based on rational thinking.
yKpoI14uk [10]

The answer is false.  Superstition is based more on irrational fears rather than rational thinking.  It was brought about due to an ominous experience or occurrence that has later evolved into a system of customs, beliefs and traditions of things people can’t explain.

Why was the economic downturn of 1857 a factor in causing the Colorado Gold Rush?
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The year was 1857, and U.S. banks needed that gold to reach its destination safely. The banks had invested in businesses that were failing, and this was causing the American people to panic. Investors were losing heavily in the stock market and railroads were unable to pay their debts.

Which sentence is written correctly in regards to parallel structure?A) Seamus liked doing almost any physical activity: hiking,
ivanzaharov [21]

The correct answer is A. Seamus liked doing almost any physical activity: hiking, surfing, biking, running, and even spelunking.  

Explanation:

In grammar, a parallel structure in one in which there is a repetition of a grammatical structure, this usually implies a list of elements are presented using the same structure and related to the rest of the sentence in the same way which creates a parallel relation between all the elements presented.

In the case of presented, a parallel structure implies all the elements of the list which are sport or activities are presented by using the same grammatical structure which can be done by presenting all the elements using gerunds (verbs ended in -ing) or an infinitive (preposition "to" followed by the verb). Considering this, the only option which follows a parallel structure is "Seamus liked doing almost any physical activity: hiking, surfing, biking, running, and even spelunking" because all the elements after the colon (:) are presented using gerund grammatical structure which creates a parallel relationship between all the elements.
