Giddy-up, cowboys and girls! In the Southwest during early half of the 1800s, cows were only worth 2 or 3 dollars a piece. They roamned wild, grazed off of the open range, and were abundant
Midway through the century though, railroads were built and the nation was connected. People
could suddenly ship cows in freight trains to the Northeast, where the Yankees had a growing
taste for beef. Out of the blue, the same cows that were once worth a couple of bucks were now
worth between twenty and forty dollars each, if you could get them to the train station. It became
pretty lucrative to wrangle up a drove of cattle and herd them to the nearest train town, but it was
at least as dangerous as it was profitable. Cowboys were threatened at every turn. They faced
cattle rustlers, stampedes and extreme weather, but kept pushing those steers to the train station.
By the turn of the century, barbed wire billed the open range and some may say the cowboy too,
but it was the train that birthed him.

6. Summarize the passage in your own words:

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.
