Question

Because the story would have offended many people, the paper did not print it.

a. coordination
b. subordination
c. parallelism

Answer 1

b. subordination

Explanation:

Subordination is linking two clauses in a sentence so that one clause is subordinate to (or dependent on) another.

In subordination, a subordinate clause is attached to the main clause with the help of a subordinating conjunction.

There are many subordinating conjunctions. Because is one of them.

Parallelism in a sentence means using constructions that are grammatically similar or identical in structure. We see none of these similar/identical elements in the sentence.

Answer 2

c. parallelism

Sentence structures could be simple (one independent clause), compound (two independent clause with coordinating conjunction), complex (a subordinate & independent clause) and compound-complex sentences (subordinate & two independent clause). These include clauses, conjunctions, coherence and balance and even to the number of words you use in your subject and predicate. You must also see to it that when you do parallelism, your sentences still makes sense.
