WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST How was Thomas King affected by a border crossing in the short story “Borders”?

The short story "Borders" by Thomas King was a very interesting short story about a mom and her son who tried to cross the border from Canada to the United States to go visit the mom's daughter who now lived in Salt Lake City but faced an issue. ... Then, the mom and son tried one last time to cross the border.

faulty parallelism is a construction in which two or more parts of a sentence are equivalent in meaning but not grammatically similar in form.

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

the hikers knew that the hike was six miles, that it usually required the entire day, and it would not be wise to start after 10: 00 a.m.

the problem is the last sentence, the first two have 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 all three sentences:

the hikers knew that the hike was six miles, that it usually required the entire day, and it would not be wise to start after 10: 00 a.m.
