A. Transportation planner Sarah Reidel believes that companies need to encourage employees to take alternate means of transportation, telecommute when possible, and work abbreviated schedules.


Parallel structure is when there is a consistent use of the same grammatical structure. This is especially important when writing a list. In the sentence, the author lists the three things companies can do to help with the transportation problem. The verb structure needs to be the same. Option A is the only choice that has a similar verb structure for encourage, telecommute and work. Other options vary the verb structure sometimes using verbs that end in -ing while others do not. These do not have parallel structure.

How does the author achieve his purpose of highlighting Iqbal’s bravery in these frames?
Murrr4er [49]

The correct answer is "by showing Iqbal telling the factory owner he is leaving". In the mid-1990s, a bright young youth made a global impact on child slavery. Iqbal became one of the many child bonded laborers at the carpet factory. Despite working 14 hour days six days a week, Iqbal never earned enough money to pay off the debt, the cost of his “apprenticeship”, his tools, his food, fines for his mistakes or the rising interest.
