1 answer:

3 0

The sentence that contains a faulty parallel structure is the sentence, "He exercised while I watch television." The wrong part of this sentence is that, the first verb uses a past form, and then the next verb uses the present form. It is using the conjunction "while" meaning both verbs or action happen at the same time. Therefore, the verbs should either be both past form or both present form.

Explanation:

The narrator, Victor Frankenstein, is describing, in this passage, the change of feelings he has undergone concerning his work. According to him, he is no longer interested in natural history, seeing it as a "would-be science" that cannot bring any "real knowledge". He went from being excited about it to disdaining it completely. That's why he took up to working with mathematics and its "secure foundations". The line that best describes the changed feelings is, "All that had so long engaged my attention suddenly grew despicable."
