Which about Mama does the author show in this passage from "Everyday Use?"
"In real life I am a large, big-boned woman with rough,
man-working hands. In the winter I wear flannel
nightgowns to bed and overalls during the day. I can kill
and clean a hog as mercilessly as a man. My fat keeps me
hot in zero weather."
A. She is ordinary and humble.
B. She is ashamed and remorseful.
C. She is serious but lady-like.
D. She is caring but determined.

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.

the answer is c? i just got it write

b

explanation:

you should ask "yourself is it good enough? "
