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.

Why is tituba’s prayer an example of dramatic irony?
Valentin [98]

Tituba's prayer is an example of dramatic irony because she prays to God only to show off to the people.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Dramatic irony occurs in a play when the audience knows the situation in the play and understands it, but the character doesn't understand the same.
  • The words and the actions of the characters are often contradictory in this case.
  • Tituba is a woman from Barbados who does black magic and she prays to God just to show to the people about her believes in God and is on God's side.
  • But she was the one who did black magic, planned the dance in the forest and conjured the bad souls.
  • Thus, her act is an example of dramatic irony.

Why do some playwrights use meter?
ExtremeBDS [4]
Playwrights use meter to help the audience follow what is happening in the play. A syllabic pattern, whether it is stressed or unstressed, in a poem or play is called a meter. This is used to emphasize words and expressions through vocal projection that can portray the nature of the play
