I think it’s the last one but I wouldn’t be sure because I don’t know what lesson 1 is. Maybe u should give a brief summary?
Answer:
A.) Paolo learned to play golf, paddle a canoe, and tie complicated knots.
Explanation:
<u>Parallel construction is found in sentences where several parts of the sentence are written in the same form. This not only makes the sentence grammatically correct but also makes it more coherent and flow better.</u>
We can break down each sentence to show which one has the correct parallel construction.
A.) Paolo learned to play golf, paddle a canoe, and tie complicated knots. This sentence is a good demonstration of parallel construction.
B.)I will feel proud if I finish in second place, but I regretted not earning the first place trophy. One clause of the sentence uses future tense, and the other clause uses past tense. This is not parallel.
C.) Claudette followed the flashlight's beam down the trail, and she tries not to bump into Khanh in front of her. Again, the tenses in this sentence don't match. One clause is past tense and the other is present.
D.) Her plate was piled high with grilled vegetables, a mound of minced garlic, and is heaped with crushed herbs. This sentence would be parallel if it was rewritten as, "Her plate was piled high with grilled vegetables, minced garlic, and crushed herbs." "A mound," and "is heaped" make all three of these different forms meaning it is not parallel.
I think the answer would be C:The absence of eyes struck me more than the other defects
I’m not sure doe. tell me if i’m wrong .
Answer: A
Explanation:
Defoe: he spoke out against people who "barter baubles for the souls of men" and yet he invested heavily in the slave trade and maintained that it was "the most useful and most profitable trade . . . of any part of the general commerce of the nation."
Even though Defoe felt this way personally, I think that it is portrayed in the story that RC did not have to have people around him to be successful. He not only was able to train people in how to care for the island and to survive, life seems to come and to to him. He had the desire to keep on moving towards success. I believe that him "owning" another person was not what he wanted, but that he desired a friend. He knew he could be successful with Friday.
