Answer 1

The answer is letter C, Allegories tell a story, have multiple meanings, and offer a moral lesson.

Step-by-step explanation:

When it comes to the the English Grammar, "parallelism" refers to phrases in a sentence that shows a similar pattern. This pattern also provides a similar thought that are logically represented.

In the example sentence above, letter C is the answer because the phrases, "tell a story," "have multiple meanings," and "offer a moral lesson" are all parallel. All of these follow the correct subject-verb agreement.

Since the word "allegories" is plural, then the verb following it should also be plural (tell, have and offer).
