The correct answer is B. We came; we saw; we conquered

Explanation:

In grammar, parallelism or parallel construction is the repetition of grammatical structures or patterns within the same sentence, this repetition establishes a parallel relationship between different words or phrases that show all the elements have the same importance and are introduced in the same way. This grammatical constructions also make texts easier to understand and state in a clearer way the relationship between a set or list of elements and other structures. Considering this, the example that uses parallel words or phrases is B. "We came; we saw; we conquered" because in this example all the elements have the same grammatical structure (use of the pronoun "we" followed by a verb in past simple); also all the elements are separated by a semicolon and any other element is added which means there is a repetition of grammatical structures and a relation of parallelism within the elements which are the main features for parallel words or phrases.

Can someone help me write a short story with dialogue plz

Katen [24]

Answer:Once, a pig built up a house

The house was of straw that he bought from the town

One day, a wolf came and saw the little pig

He came to the pig's door and then the wolf said...

[Chorus]

"Little pig, little pig, let me in"

"Not by the hairs of my chinny chin chin"

So I huffed and I puffed, and I blew that thing down

Next thing I knew, he was running around

So I chased that pig down

Wanted some bacon, so I had to go to his big brother’s house

Said I blew that thing down

Little Red Riding Hood didn't ride home, so I'm after you now

I’m a real alpha wolf, this ain't Little Bo Peep

Don't try and cry, "Wolf", I ain't here for no sheep

No McDonald's money, so y'all are my treat

And if we do the race, all I need are some cleats

[Verse 1]

Run to the market, Pig, You can run home

Go get your roast beef, but I'll catch you for sure

You look like a snack, and I don't mean you’re cute

But I bet you’ll look good with some veggies and fruit

Little pig, you're sweating, just take a little break

Just make this thing easy and hop on my plate

I’m trying to get home to play Fortnite today

And I can't come back late, Mama Wolf doesn't play

Pig told the wolf, "Oh I'm leaving, Mama ain’t make me this thick to be eaten

You're big and bad 'til my big bro gets even

And no, I won't slow, Wolf, I trained for track season."

Don't run up that hill, Pig, You're not Jack and Jill

Don't climb up that wall, have a great fall for real

I need food to serve while I go on this date

So don't make me look bad. I can't make Wolfy wait

Lucky for Pig, I had worn the wrong kicks

So he got to his brother's house made out of sticks

Wolf came up after and saw the little pigs

He came to the pigs' door and then the wolf said

[Chorus]

"Little pig, little pig, let me in"

"Not by the hairs of our chinny chin chin"

So I huffed and I puffed, and I blew that thing down

Next thing I knew, he was running around...

So I chased that pig down

Wanted some bacon, so I had to go to his big brother's house

Said I blew that thing down

Little Red Riding Hood didn't ride home, so I'm after you now

I'm a real alpha wolf, this ain't Winnie the Pooh

Don't try and cry, "Wolf", I'm not lying to you

My McDonald's money is low, so you'll do

And I've got the right shoes, so it's over for you

[Verse 2]

Come here little pigs, I need my two-course meal

This is a fairy tail, but I'm for real

I had Mary's little lamb, but a wolf's hungry still

I need food that will fill

I need some bacon

I need some fries

I need some pork with some pie on the side

I need some sausage with beans and some rice

I need that candlelit dinner tonight

Pig told the wolf, "Oh you're tripping for real

I'm way too cute for a snack, I'm a meal

We came from the mud, we've had worse wolves we've beat

Yes, we're pigs, but you don't want this beef!"

You know what little pig, I'm tired, I'm not here to play

If I don't bring dinner, I won't have a bae

You don't even follow me back on the 'Gram

So don't think you can beat me, I'm about to go ham

Lucky for them I had tripped on a stick

So they made it to their brother's house made of brick

Wolf came up after and saw the little pigs

He came to the pigs' door, and then the wolf said

[Verse 3]

"Little pig, little pig, let me in"

"Not by the hairs of our chinny chin chin"

So I huffed and I puffed, trying to blow that thing down

But that house was of brick, and it stayed in the ground

So I blew even harder, a real wolf won't quit

No, I'm not chief, but I swear this is it

And I would have had that pig's house blown into bits

But my asthma was acting up, I had to sit

Lucky for me, a wolf got his degree

So I made up a plan to get all the piggies

They'll think I'm beat and I'll fake a retreat

Then, I'll jump on the roof and right down the chimney

One pig said, "He stopped blowing his hot breath"

They heard footsteps and knew what was next

So they played their mixtape, got the fireplace lit

Then they waited for Wolf to come in

Pigs, I'm coming down the chimney, about to fatten up like Santa Claus

Ahh, okay, the chimney's feeling kind of hot!

All of you are lucky I'm going vegan

Just wait 'til me and my pack come back again

The end
