Answer:
C). Parenthetical element
D). Parallel Structure.
Explanation:
Parenthetical element is characterized as the words or group of words that disrupt the flow a sentence by attaching unnecessary details. The words can appear at any part of the sentence(beginning, middle, or end) and affects its clarity and coherence. While Parallel structure is described as the structure in which the similar pattern of words are employed .
In the first sentence of the second paragraph, these two techniques(parenthetical element and parallel structure) occur. Parenthetical element as the author provides unncessary details(like 'to front only the essential facts of life, and not, etc.') which clutter the meaning of the sentence and parallelism as the parallel infinitive phrases i.e. 'to live, to front, to teach, to die' have been employed. Thus, <u>options C and D</u> are the correct answers.
Answer:
These are referred to as <u>adverbs.</u> Adverbs are words that modify a sentence, and often end with a prefix of <em>ly-</em>. For example, "I walk to the park slowly". That sentence has an adverb, <em>slowly</em>, which modifies the sentence so we know that the writer is slowly walking to the park. Now, without that adverb, we would not know that the writer is slowly walking to the park, we would just know they are walking to the park. That is how adverbs modify sentences.
