I think the answer would be your final choice.
Papa did not finish law school and worked many odd jobs. A few years before Jeanne was born he started farming near Watsonville, California. During the Great Depression he moved to Inglewood, but he then turned to fishing in Santa Monica, where he acquired two boats, a house, and a Studebaker.
Parallel structure is using the same pattern of words or using the same grammatical form. The answer is C because "report", "broadcast", and "interview" are all similar (same pattern of words).
For example in answer choice D, "interviewed" is past tense and breaks the use of the same pattern of words. "Report" and "broadcast" are both similar and in present tense. Therefore why this answer doesn't work.
