The reason that the author makes the given text <em>parenthetical</em> is<em> to add emphasis and make clear his point.</em>

A parenthetical statement serves the following purposes:

  • it explains a previous statement
  • it qualifies something
  • it adds clarity to a sentence
  • it gives extra information that may not be essential.

Thus, parenthesis is usually employed in speeches and texts to give more meaning and extra information, where it is considered appropriate.

Answer:

C. After dolphins have been underwater for a long period.

Explanation:

A sentence fragement is an incomplete sentence/thought. In all the rest of the answers, there is a concrete meaning behind what is being saif. However, in C, the write doesn't tell you what happens after a dolphin has been underwater for a long period. Thus, it's an incomplete thought and a sentence fragment.

makkiz [27]

Answer:

I think it's an AMAZING story. You just need to fix some grammatical problems in the 2nd paragraph. Also, it would be great if you made a part two or something. (I want to know the backstory on what happened to Sasha.) Thank you for making an interesting story and for not using a overused ending. Good Luck with editing!
