What is the best definition of parallel structure?
ohaa [14]
Parallel structure is the use of the same grammatical structure in a text: the correct answer is A. It does not matter then whether this structure has articles, complex phrases or adverb-verbs, as long as the structure of two or more sentences is the same!

(click) please tell me which sentence is the main idea, too broad and too narrow.
Gelneren [198K]

A paragraph is a group of sentences related to a particular topic, or central theme.  Every paragraph has a key concept or main idea.  The main idea is the most important piece of information the author wants you to know about the concept of that paragraph.

When authors write they have an idea in mind that they are trying to get across.  This is especially true as authors compose paragraphs.  An author organizes each paragraph's main idea and supporting details in support of the topic or central theme, and each paragraph supports the paragraph preceding it.

A writer will state his/her main idea explicitly somewhere in the paragraph.  That main idea may be stated at the beginning of the paragraph, in the middle, or at the end.  The sentence in which the main idea is stated is the topic sentence of that paragraph.

The topic sentence announces the general theme ( or portion of the theme) to be dealt with in the paragraph.  Although the topic sentence may appear anywhere in the paragraph, it is usually first – and for a very good reason.  This sentence provides the focus for the writer while writing and for the reader while reading.  When you find the topic sentence, be sure to underline it so that it will stand out not only now, but also later when you review.

Identifying the Topic:

The first thing you must be able to do to get at the main idea of a paragraph is to identify the topic – the subject of the paragraph.  Think of the paragraph as a wheel with the topic being the hub – the central core around which the whole wheel (or paragraph) spins.  Your strategy for topic identification is simply to ask yourself the question, "What is this about?"  Keep asking yourself that question as you read a paragraph, until the answer to your question becomes clear.  Sometimes you can spot the topic by looking for a word or two that repeat.  Usually you can state the topic in a few words.

Answer:

1 - The cartoonist is possibly trying to convey 1 of 3 things: that people will tend to assume a situation isn't bad just because they can't see the full extent of the conflict, people would rather fill in the blanks of what they don't know with a pre existing beliefs that may or may not be true and just leave it at that, or just because whatever makes a situation bad is present in one circumstance doesn't mean it can't be harmful in another circumference.

2 - The crocodile is smiling almost mischievously, indicating that it's aware of its surroundings and the situation that its in and knows that it can act on the fact that these humans are scared of him, and frankly he looks proud as if thinking to himself "Yes fear me humans, you will respect my capabilities". Not to mention its face is shown to be as developed as the two people and is featuring human like emotions such as pride. Additionally the crocodile is on a bicycle which, as far as I know is strictly a human thing to ride.

3 - The one who's initially afraid of the croc seems to acknowledge the fact that the crocodile is an animal that shouldn't be messed with, and fears what they can do. The second who arrives after, believing that it's safe to assume that crocs are slow on land, reassures the other even though he may not know completely himself. I'd say that the first character is rational and is right to be cautious around a crocodile and the second one is more quick to believe that crocodiles can't be that bad and they should only be feared in the water.

4 - Obviously the character makes the false assumption that just because the crocodile is fast in the water, there's no evidence to conclude that the crocodile CAN'T be fast on land as well. Therefore his assumption is irrational.

5 - The cartoonist exaggerates the frame by adding a bicycle in which the crocodile sits atop. This is an exaggeration because crocodiles don't need bikes to move around, on land or in the water, and would be unnecessary for chasing them.

6 - The characters' interaction uses words to downplay the severity of the situation and make it seem as everything is alright, and the first few frames supports this. Yet we see that the crocodile is on a bike, which is quite an odd and almost hilarious site to witness, and could possibly use it to chase them but only we the audience knows this.
