Explanation:
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 <em>"Last weekend, Constanza ran, went shopping and was eating an apple"</em>, 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 <u>change "went shopping" to "shopped" and "was eating" into "ate", meaning from past continuous to simple past.</u>
Thus, the correct answer to fix the faulty parallel structure will be option A.
The answers would be:
- character who tells or narrator the story: Pierre Aronnax
- frigate sent out to catch the monster: Abraham Lincoln
- voyage began: New York
- destination of the Abraham Lincoln: Pacific Ocean
- ship which had its hull pierced by the monster: Scotia
Twenty thousand leagues under the sea is a science fiction novel by Jules Verne. The character who narrates the story is Aronnax, a French Marine biologist, who boards the frigate Abraham Lincoln in an expedition to hunt a monster spotted by several ships of different nations. The monster turns out to be a submarine commanded by Captain Nemo who, upon being discovered by Aronnax and the others, has no intention of allowing them to go home.
