This is normally how a conversation takes place between parents and their child while asking for permission.
The phone rings and Rohan’s mother picks up the call.
Rohan (son) : Mom I need to ask you something.
Mother: What is it son?
Rohan: Mom you known that I’m at my friend’s place for his birthday celebration. . .
Mother : Yes. So? What’s the matter?
Rohan : So can I just stay at my friend’s house for tonight?
Mother : No. I’ve permitted you to go at his party, but I can’t permit you to stay at his place.
Rohan : Mom please mom, it is my friend who insisted me to stay by. Rest of my friends are also staying, and their parents even agreed.
Mother : Fine. You may stay, but make sure you don’t involve in any kind of mischievous behavior. And be back tomorrow early morning. You get that?
Rohan : Yes mom. Thank you so much. You’re the best mom.
And they hung up the call !!
Answer: D

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.
