My sisters are all artistic—Patricia writes, Mary sculpts, and Elizabeth composes.

Parallel structure is when the items in a list are all written in the same grammatical structure. In the correct answer (A), the grammatical structure of the list is Subject-Verb. Option B is not correct because the first and third items of the list are written Subject-Verb-Direct Object, but the second item is only Subject-Verb. Option C is in correct because the first item says what Patricia is and the last two items say what the girls do. This is also the reason option D is wrong. The first two items in the list tell what the two girls create while the last item says what Elizabeth is.

Please Tell me what you think about my essay, please be honest, i really need a good grade on this!
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

I think it is great! I like how you used transitional words. I liked that you used evidence. But you need a claim. Like : I plan to prove that video games are harmful to American people. Or something like that. You have a counterclaim which is good but no claim. You also need a thesis. I will give you an outline and see if your essay fits into it.   It is what my English teacher gave me to use. You can use it or you don't have to, but I would ask your teacher if you could use it just to be sure.
