English
1 answer:
Anettt [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A. Clutched her stomach.

Explanation:

Parallel structure refers to the use of a similar word patterns in a sentence. In other words, this means that the tense or word form used is the same in a sentence.

In the given sentence, the verb used is in the simple past tense. So, the verb structure all throughout the sentence will remain in that form, meaning the verbs used will all be in the same form.

So, the sentence with parallel structure will become-

<em>When Delores realized that her father had made lima beans and rice for dinner, she claimed to feel nauseous, clutched her stomach, and excused herself from the table. The bag of stale popcorn in her room would tide her over until breakfast.</em>

The parallelism is seen in the words "realized, claimed, clutched, excused".

Therefore, <u>the option that will maintain parallel structure in the sentence will be option A.</u>

How does someone respect the feelings of others
Temka [501]

Throughout in our life journey, we are destined to have many people around us in form of relatives, friends, neighbors, co-workers and even some strangers. They all play important role in our lives and help us to evolve as a strong human being. So having respect for the feelings of others is essential for us to grow as a strong individual.

As we all human beings are unique in our own way, so the persons around us may have different feelings, beliefs and behaviors in accordance with their own needs and motivations. They cannot react the same way in any given situation as we do. However, by respecting the feelings of others, we help us to realize our desired goal smoothly and live a truly contented life.

By respecting the feelings of others, we encourage them to share their feelings and experiences in a more friendly way, which reinforce relationship. Only having a respect for them is not enough, we have to show them that we care about them through empathy and understanding. We should never advice without being asked, criticize or lecture others because we do not know those people well enough to judge. In other words, disrespect is a sign of ignorance.

The best way to respect the feelings of the other people is by listening to them with empathy and in a nonjudgmental way so that they can share their feelings comfortably. After all, we all human beings have more similarities underneath our skin color, race, and religion.

Furthermore the truth is that everyone deserves respect. So we should treat people in a manner in which we expect to be treated. If in any case, our action is going to affect other people, we need to consider those peoples feelings before making a decision.

Finally, feelings are what make anyone feel worthwhile or worthless. It requires only a little bit of efforts to make anyone feel valuable. Therefore, we should learn how to respect the feelings of others to sustain relationship and have a happy life
