Explanation:

Conditional sentences are sentences used to introduce a condition that needs to be fulfilled in order for something to happen. They consist of two clauses - the main clause and the if-clause, which introduces the condition. There are four types of conditionals: zero, first, second, and third conditionals.

The second conditional is most often used to talk about things in the future that are probably not going to happen or things in the present that are impossible. In the if-clause, the verb should be in the past simple tense, and in the main clause, it should be in the infinitive form and preceded by would. That means that its formula is the following:

If + past simple, ...would + infinitive.

iris [78.8K]

Answer: Odysseus has the defining character traits of a Homeric leader: strength, courage, nobility, a thirst for glory, and confidence in his authority. His most distinguishing trait, however, is his sharp intellect. Odysseus’s quick thinking helps him out of some very tough situations, as when he escapes from the cave of the Cyclops in Book 9, or when he hides his slaughter of the suitors by having his minstrel strike up a wedding tune in Book 23.

Marina86 [1]

There was much game hanging outside the shops, and the snow powdered in the fur of the foxes and the wind blew their tails. Parallelism is the repetition of a similar grammatical structure or construction within a sentence. The most basic example of parallelism is when writing a list of actions. For example: Yesterday I cooked, cleaned and washed the dishes. Each one of the actions is written in past tense. Authors use parallelism for emphasis and to show a relation between ideas. In this sentence, the parallelism is "the snow powdered" and "the wind blew". The grammatical structures are similar.
