<span>The best sentence that explains the use of parallelism in James Baldwin's "Notes of a Native Son" is that i</span>t establishes a mood of sympathy by showing that Baldwin was frightened. The answer is letter A. Parallelism is the usage of words that makes it grammatically similar. In here, mood of sympathy corresponds to Baldwin being frightened.

Besides, at night she cannot sleep but sees the train's "ciders red on the sky" and hears the sound of a steaming engine. Thus, she has a fascination with traveling, since she would take any train and go anywhere, and she believes she would make the best of friends.

What shared knowledge should audiences of my fair lady have to better appreciate the deeper meaning of the musical?
sladkih [1.3K]
I think that the audience should have a shared knowledge of the English language.

The story depicts a transformation of a woman who is taught to speak English "properly". This change from gutter snipe to respected lady began by learning how to speak in English properly. 

The audience must know how to speak in English to know the changes the use of language has undergone through the play.

Sayeed Johnson, who is running for mayor, will be speaking at the city library tonight.
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: Terms that describe the underlined portion of the sentence ("who is running for mayor") are: <u>nonrestrictive</u> and<u> clause.</u>

Explanation:

  • A clause is a grammar unit that, unlike a phrase, contains a verb and a subject. It is different from a sentence in that it does not convey a complete thought and does not make sense on its own. In this case, "who is running for mayor" is a<u> </u><u>relative clause. </u>

*An appositive is <u>a noun/noun phrase</u> which identifies another element in a sentence (typically another noun phrase). This is not the case here, as this construction is a relative clause and not a noun phrase.

  • A nonrestrictive clause, also known as a nonessential clause, is a clause which provides details that are not essential for a sentence to make sense. In other words, the meaning of the sentence would remain the same without this clause - <em>Sayeed Johnson will be speaking at the city library tonight. </em>
