Answer:

by showing that neither the settlers nor Native Americans accepted the others' beliefs

Explanation:

Benjamin Franklin showed through this article that the groups, that is, the Native Americans and the Settlers found it difficult to accept each other's believes. He used irony, that is saying the opposite of what a person means to illustrate this. When the Natives showed civility to the Settlers, they mistook it for acceptance of their beliefs. But when the Natives deliberated on the matter and offered their response, it most times was a rejection of all the things which the settlers proposed to them.

In like manner, the settlers also considered the Indian's beliefs such as his theory of the existence of life as mere fables. The Indians also believed that the English man's meeting taught him no good as his actions belied that.

Which of the following sentences uses parallel structure?
Alchen [17]
D. parallel structure just means that all of your verbs in the comma series line up in regards to tenses, here. in choice D, it's "BE friendly," "INTRODUCE yourself," and "SMILE." these are all present tense verbs.

the rest of the choices don't match--"exercise" and "stretching" are two different verb forms in choice A, "to go to the library" is the odd one out in choice B, ane "to build" doesn't match with the "-ing" verbs in choice C.

Phil was very happy to learn that his tumor was benign and would not make him sick.
creativ13 [48]
The true meaning of the word "benign" in this sentence is - harmless. It is the word that originates from Latin word "benignus". In medical terms, it refers to something that does not cause death or serious injury. Also, it is most commonly used to describe tumors which are not cancerous. The famous American film director once said: "The most beautiful words in English are not 'I love you' but 'It-s benign'." This word can also be used to describe one's character, meaning that he or she is kind, gentle and that can hardly harm anyone.
