Hello. You forgot to show the text and answer options. Both are set out below.
In 2002, astronomers using Hubble noted that the abundance of high-altitude clouds increased the planet's brightness from observations made in the late 1990s. Astronomers consider this brightness increase a sign of seasonal change. Hubble studies show that Neptune has a nearly constant brightness at low latitudes (near the equator). This supports the idea that the observed changes are seasonal in nature, because seasonal effects would be minimal near the equator and most evident at high latitudes.
A. to prove how scientists were able to confirm that Neptune has recurring weather
B. to suggest that Neptune is similar to Earth in terms of weather patterns
C. to demonstrate how scientists were able to conclude that Neptune has clouds like Earth
D. to introduce the idea that Neptune is similar to other planets in the galaxy
Answer:
A. to prove how scientists were able to confirm that Neptune has recurring weather
Explanation:
The text presents how scientists came to the conclusion that Neptune is a planet that has seasonal changes, similar to the earth, but with a different time interval between them. The text also shows that it is possible to observe these seasonal changes with the increase in the latitude at which the planet is observed, which reinforces the idea that, on this planet, the climate is recurrent, according to seasonality.
Answer:
The sentence with the best elements of parallelism of the examples provided is Option B. Science may be challenging, but it is also rewarding; reading might be time-consuming, but it is also enlightening.
Explanation:
Parallelism is a property of the way your sentences are structured in a piece of writing. It is usually a property that is particularly important when providing lists in something you write. All points on a list should start with a word in the same format, i.e. the listed elements should all start with a noun -- or a verb, if that is the case -- but not a mixture of those two elements. You see this mistake a lot on peoples resumes when they are listing things. Option B is best because "reading" is treated like the noun "science" in this case. Another example of the work "reading" being treated like a noun would be: "I have done the reading." Both sentences use the verb in the present progressive form in the second independent clause ending each sentence. That is another way they are parallel. There are other grammatical similarities that could be considered parallelsim in this example too!
Doug needs to be honest with his manager. He could say that he doesn’t feel he has the proper skills right now to run a restaurant. He could also ask that she teaches him how to do the job, so he may be more confident in his ability to do it.
