By listening. Listening is difficult because it requires people to pay attention to the person they are listening to. With all the different distractions we have nowadays, listening is very hard because we need to give our time, effort and be genuine at the same time when a person is talking. To listen is a form of respect. We have two ears and a mouth and one of the reasons is that we need to listen more instead of talking. In listening, this is where we challenged ourselves to be more open to ideas.

Which is the best way to fix the incorrect parallel structure in the sentence

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

A) Change the verbs to be consistent "ran, shopped and ate".

Explanation:

Faulty parallel structure is when there are discrepancies or errors in the form or structure of a sentence. This error can be in the form of tenses or their structuring.

In the given sentence "Last weekend, Constanza ran, went shopping and was eating an apple", the faulty parallel structure is in the tense. This means that the tenses used for the verbs in the sentence are not the same. Taking into consideration the time frame of the event mentioned, it is an event that was done in the past, "last weekend" which therefore confirms it should be in the past tense. Now, the verbs in the sentence "ran, went shopping, was eating" are not consistent.

So, by changing all of them to the past tense form consistent with "ran", we can change "went shopping" to "shopped" and "was eating" into "ate", meaning from past continuous to simple past.

Thus, the correct answer to fix the faulty parallel structure will be option A.
