Answer:
Parallel structure should be used when you connect clauses with a coordinating conjunction such as: for, and, nor, or, but, so, or yet. Some examples of this include: Correct: Every morning, we make our bed, eat breakfast and feed the dog. Incorrect: Every morning, we make our bed, eating breakfast and feed the dog.

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:
Complete the sentence with an appropriate intensive pronouns.
Diana found the story difficult to believe______________.
A. she
B. itself
C. herself
Answer:
Diana found the story difficult to believe herself.
Explanation:
<u>Intensive pronouns are used to emphasize the nouns they refer to.</u> We need to be careful because intensive pronouns and reflexive pronouns are actually the same - myself, yourself, himself, etc. It is the use in context that differs.
In the sentence we are supposed to complete, we need to choose the appropriate intensive pronoun among the options. <u>Since "she" is a subject pronoun, we can already eliminate it. If we use "itself", we will be emphasizing "story". However, the person who has difficulty believing the story is Diana. She is the one who should be emphasized. Therefore, we can eliminate "itself" and safely choose "herself".</u>
