Answer: Mark Twain claims that the humorous story is one of the most difficult to master. He makes the distinction between the French witty story, the English comic story, and the American humorous story. As an American author, Twain makes specific assertions about the differences between humorous and comic stories. He describes the humorous story as a high art, in which the author manipulates the readers's understanding of what is happening and that wanders into great depths, rather than its shallow counterparts.

Parallel structure uses different tense within verb structure. one of five key structure words. the same tense and structure. de
Katyanochek1 [597]

I am not sure what you are asking here.  If you are asking what parallel structure looks like, you would have to keep the verb tenses the same.  For example, Sam likes to ride bikes, hike trails, and bake bread.  What is does NOT look like: Sam likes to ride bikes, go hiking on trails, and baked bread with her grandmother.  The structure words would be based of the passage you were given, which isn't supplied here.  If you were asked to write a paragraph using a parallel structure, follow the example given here.
