Answer:
A) Change the verbs to be consistent "ran, shopped and ate".
Explanation:
Faulty parallel structure is when there are discrepancies or errors in the form or structure of a sentence. This error can be in the form of tenses or their structuring.
In the given sentence <em>"Last weekend, Constanza ran, went shopping and was eating an apple"</em>, the faulty parallel structure is in the tense. This means that the tenses used for the verbs in the sentence are not the same. Taking into consideration the time frame of the event mentioned, it is an event that was done in the past, "last weekend" which therefore confirms it should be in the past tense. Now, the verbs in the sentence "ran, went shopping, was eating" are not consistent.
So, by changing all of them to the past tense form consistent with "ran", we can <u>change "went shopping" to "shopped" and "was eating" into "ate", meaning from past continuous to simple past.</u>
Thus, the correct answer to fix the faulty parallel structure will be option A.
Answer:
Espaillat uses structure to develop the theme that grief affects people greatly by using an A, B, A, B poem structure until the last two lines that go A, A. This 'flatlining' either means that the author's mother has become emotionally numb do to her grief and repititive working coping mechanism or she has died due to this, therefore her death being represented by an A, A rhythm.
Explanation:
The structure shows (especially at the last two lines) an example of grief and its affects through her mother. She's 'alive' either metaphorically or physically and then 'deceased' at the end metaphorically or physically.
Hope this is understandable and helpful!
