My sisters are all artistic—Patricia writes, Mary sculpts, and Elizabeth composes.

Parallel structure is when the items in a list are all written in the same grammatical structure. In the correct answer (A), the grammatical structure of the list is Subject-Verb. Option B is not correct because the first and third items of the list are written Subject-Verb-Direct Object, but the second item is only Subject-Verb. Option C is in correct because the first item says what Patricia is and the last two items say what the girls do. This is also the reason option D is wrong. The first two items in the list tell what the two girls create while the last item says what Elizabeth is.

In the context of this excerpt, how does power corrupt? Use evidence from this text, your own experience, and other art or liter
KengaRu [80]

The correct answer is the following.

Although there is no excerpt attached or another kind of reference, we can say that the question refers to the story of Frankenstein, written by English writer Mary Shelley in 1818.

In this story, power corrupts in that the monster tries to create revenge against Victor. The monster or the creature knows that it was created in such a way by Victor that it won't be able to fit into society. The creature can't control its hunger for killing people who are close to Victor.

That is why, when today people can control their actions it is said that "they cannot control the monster inside."
