Answer:

D). Most surfers use longboards for recreation rather than for competition.

Explanation:

Parallelism is exemplified as the fundamental proposition of grammar that serves to maintain the rhythm and balance of the sentence. It involves a structure that employs the use of words or ideas that are of equal significance and enhance the readability and flow of the sentence.

As per the rules, the conjunction 'rather than' involves parallel grammatical structure/construction on each side which is displayed in option D only('for recreation' and 'for competition'. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer as it proposes a parallel construction.
