d. Is Aunt Louise's house east or west of North Main Street?

Explanation:

Capitalization is one element of grammatical construction where the use of the Capital letter for the first letter of the word is a requirement. And the use of capitalization is mainly for proper nouns in a sentence.

In the given sentence, the proper nouns are "Aunt Louise" and the address "North Main Street". This is because it is the name of a specific noun and not common or a generalization. "East" and "west" in the sentence will  not be capitalized because of the form they are in. In this particular sentence, they act as a general or common noun which is why they will not be capitalized.

Thus, the correct sentence with the correct capitalization is option d.

faulty parallelism is a grammar construction where there is no balance in the parts of a sentence they have a similar meaning but the grammar structure is not equivalent.

the correct version of this faulty parallelism in the sentence is:

jefferson wrote the declaration of independence, and he was the nation's third president.

the problem with the first version is that the sentence:

"jefferson was both the writer of the declaration of independence"

presents jefferson as both a subject and an agent for the verb "write" because if he was "the writer" then the declaration of independence was written by him, besides that fact, the sentence presents a dependent clause.

while the second sentence:

he was the nation's third president.

presents a basic subject+verb+object structure

so, to give a proper balance to the structure, or better said, to give a parallel structure, we must write a basic s+v+o structure in both sentences:

jefferson wrote the declaration of independence, and he was the nation third president.
