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.

Told can indeed be a participle or a verb, depending on the context.

Here it's verb: it's a past tense of "tell".

It could be a participle if the sentence were as follows:

I puffed by cheeks to get rid of the hiccups, told by my cousin to do so. (it's a weird formulation but not incorrect I believe)

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Books and movies are different there are many details that change while both tell the same story the book has many different events that take longer to occur than the movie. For example in the book "Divergent" we see our main character Tris go through many simulations and at the middle of the second book we see a very painful and specific simulation while in the movie we see this towards the end. Both may tell the same story but they have different events that occur and the movie doesn't explain things as well as the book. The books have pages and pages to explain while the movie has a short allotted time to explain. -Your friend, Bill Cipher
