Parallelism refers to the fact that the same form of a word is used throughout a particular sentence. Here, as you can see, the option D differs from the other options because the verb is used in its progressive form, instead of simple past form as in the previous options (were running, as opposed to dropped, got off, and yelled). This is why the correct option is <span>D. were running towards the playground.</span>

The move to ban marketing of fast food to children is part of a roadmap for prevention of non-communicable diseases (NCDs).

Answer:
They were afraid of what she represented.
Explanation:
Malala You sa f z ai is a young girl from the Sw a t valley in Pakistan who was shot on the head by the Taliban for opposing their di k tat of no education for girls. And in that act of shooting her, the teenage girl grew to become one of the leading voices for the importance of education for girls and would become a worldwide activist for the same.
In her speech at the United Nations, Malala emphasized her purpose;
<em>"I speak – not for myself, but all girls and boys.
</em>
<em>I raise my voice – not so that I can shout, but so that those without a voice can be heard.
</em>
<em>Those who have fought for their rights:
</em>
<em>Their right to live in peace. Their right to be treated with dignity. Their right to equality of opportunity.
</em>
<em>Their right to be educated."</em>
And talking about the Taliban and their failed attempt at trying to silence her from advocating for the rights of girls to get an education, she only turned out stronger. She declares <em>"They thought that the bullets would silence us. But they failed. And then, out of that silence came, thousands of voices."</em>
This shows that the Taliban shot her out of fear for what she represents.
Answer:
Conjunction.
Explanation:
Conjunctions are those words that are used as joining words. They can be used to act as the mediator or adhesive to put two or more sentences together.
Words such as "yet" are used as conjunctions when they join words. The use of "yet" in a sentence provides a contrasting opinion/side of what had just been stated. But it can also be use as an adverb in a sentence. As adverbs, they give a negative connotation and talks of what is yet to happen or if it's true but that will turn or happen for sure in the future. But 'yet' is used at the end of the sentence if they are to be used as an adverb.
In the sentence "Alberto hates tomatoes <em><u>yet </u></em>adores spaghetti", the 'yet' here is used as a joining word. It joins the two sets of phrases or independent clause 'Alberto hates tomatoes' and his other quality that he 'adores spaghetti'.
