Explanation: when quoting a source in a paper or an essay, we need to cite that source in the correct way. According to MLA the format to write a parenthetical cite is to write the last name of the author of the source (book, article, etc.) followed by the number of the page from which we got the quote, this two elements must be in parentheses, and if it is the end of a sentence or a paragraph, the period must be after the last parentheses, also the cite isn't part of the quotation, so it must not be included in the quotation marks. The option that follows this format correctly is “Now many people use low-calorie sugar substitutes to control their weight” (Kowalsky 19).

11-32. the main character in the parable, the forgiving father, whose character remains constant throughout the story, is a picture of god. in telling the story, jesus identifies himself with god in his loving attitude to the lost. the younger son symbolizes the lost (the tax collectors and sinners of that day, luke 15: 1), and the elder brother represents the self-righteous (the pharisees and teachers of the law of that day, luke 15: 2). the major theme of this parable seems not to be so much the conversion of the sinner, as in the previous two parables of luke 15, but rather the restoration of a believer into fellowship with the father. in the first two parables, the owner went out to look for what was lost (luke 15: 1-10), whereas in this story the father waits and watches eagerly for his son's return. we see a progression through the three parables from the relationship of one in a hundred (luke 15: 1-7), to one in ten (luke 15: 8-10), to one in one (luke 15: 11-32), demonstrating god’s love for each individual and his personal attentiveness towards all humanity. we see in this story the graciousness of the father overshadowing the sinfulness of the son, as it is the memory of the father’s goodness that brings the prodigal son to repentance (romans 2: 4).
