B. “Telling a story,” “Being informed,” and “The end”
C. “Face the music,” “Dancing in the rain,” and “Show your stuff”
D. “To get rich,” “Getting lazy,” and “Being happy”

Answers

A parallel construction refers to the fact that the same form of a word or phrase is used in all of its examples. So, having this in mind, the correct answer is A. being happy, being sad, being depressed, because all of these constructions have a gerund being + an adjective. The other examples aren't as uniform as the first one is, which is why they are not parallel.

Answer:

Answer is A

Answers

                    The central chracter who is the focus of interest in a story is the protagonist. Hope this helped :)

protagonist

The protagonist is the main character or hero of the story. This person is the central focus of the story and the one who is most affected by the main conflict of the story. For example the protagonist in "Little Red Riding Hood" is "Little Red Riding Hood". The entire story revolves around her journey to her grandmother's house and her suspicions about her grandmother's appearance. The antagonist in a story is the character or thing that goes against the protagonist. Ant- is a common prefix that means against. In "Little Red Riding Hood" the antagonist of the story is the wolf as he is preventing Red Riding Hood from seeing her grandmother.
