In my opinion, the correct answer is <span>B. Sheila visited Paris last summer and climbed the Eiffel tower. A parallel structure in a sentence requires use of two or more instances of the same grammatical form; so, if it is, for example, simple present tense, it should be consistently used in all the clauses. In this case, we have perfect tense in both clauses, which makes these two actions parallel.</span>

Review the image.
Anit [1.1K]

The image would best enhance a presentation to a group of sixth graders interested in good nutrition.

Explanation:

The image below shows the food pyramid you were given.

This kind of representation of food groups may be too complex for preschoolers. The best way to represent this topic to children that young is by simpler categorizations, drawings they could relate to more, and vocabulary that is as simple as possible. In preschool, some children are just beginning to read, and they are most likely not to understand the meaning of words such as <em>proteins.</em>

The case is the opposite with medical health professionals interested in nutrition. This kind of categorization is too simple for them.

This food pyramid would be of no use to the scientists comparing sources of protein, as there is no precise information regarding them. Milk and other dairy products are categorized as<em> proteins</em>, despite food such as poultry, fish, tofu, and nuts being a better source of protein. Besides, scientists need a lot more information than a food pyramid can provide.

That leaves us with the sixth-graders, who have just enough knowledge to find this pyramid useful. They already know what food belongs to which category, can read labels and understand them with no problem, and may learn something new about nutrition.

How does the use of parallelism enhance the paragraph?
Zielflug [23.3K]

It calls attention to similarities between the seasons.

Answer:  Option 4.

Explanation:

Parallelism examples are found in literary works as well as in ordinary conversations. This method adds balance and rhythm to sentences, giving ideas a smoother flow and thus persuasiveness, because of the repetition it employs.

It is used to help organize ideas, but also to make the ideas memorable. When a sentence is unintentionally cluttered, unbalanced, or lengthy, this is called faulty parallelism and should be avoided.  The usual way to join parallel structures is with the use of coordinating conjunctions such as "and".
