The correct option is A.

Parallelism refers to the construction of sentences by using elements that are grammatically identical in structure, meaning or sound. Authors usually use parallelism in their works in order to draw the readers' attention to the similarity or the differences of ideas by the way they arrange them in the sentence. In the passage given above, Baldwin used parallelism in order to emphasize the things that are important and the things that are not.

Answer:

Run-on sentences make text more difficult to read.

Run-on sentences can change the intended meaning of a text.

Run-on sentences can make a sentence confusing.

Explanation:

A run-on sentence occurs when two or more independent clauses (complete sentences) are not connected properly. An example of a run-on sentence is a comma splice, which occurs when independent clauses are connected with just a comma.

Example: <em>It is nearly half past five, we cannot reach town before dark. </em>

To correct a comma splice, you can add a conjunction between the clauses, use a semicolon instead of a comma, or make each independent clause its own sentence.

Run-on sentences make the text difficult to read and cause confusion. They can even change the intended meaning of the text. For example, sentences <em>I saw a teacher who cares.</em>  and <em>I saw a teacher. Who cares?  </em>have completely different meanings.

Which is the best example of how to use a hyphen? ex-soldier populat-ion to-night sun-ny
hammer [34]
To-night is the best I guess. Sun-ny is okay too. Pipulat-ion is incorrect. Ex-soldier is not a hyphenation.
