Answer:

to vacuum the house, dusting the shelves, clean and scrub

Explanation:

Parallelism refers to the repetition of a chosen grammatical form within a sentence; it uses words, phrases or clauses that are grammatically similar or identical in structure, sound, or meter to show that the ideas are equally important and to give a natural flow of reading to the piece of writing.

Unlike the other options, “To vacuum the house, dusting the shelves, clean and scrub” does not show parallelism because its phrases do not have the same, or a similar, grammatical form: the verb <em>to vacuum</em> is in the infinitive, <em>dusting</em> is in present participle and <em>clean </em>and<em> scrub</em> are in their base forms. If we wanted to write these phrases using parallelism, we would have to choose one verb form and repeat it.

Zanzabum
The correct answer is <span>The author, Mark Twain, writes about himself as if he is another character in the story.

In the beginning, it seems as if Huck is talking instead of Mark Twain, because Huck is talking about Twain and the book Tom Sawyer and says that Twain lied and that he will tell a story that is more truthful for understanding characters who are in the book.</span>
