Proofread the following sentence(s) for inconsistent tense and person. In addition, check for faulty parallelism. Select the type of error each sentence contains. I like everything about Lamont: his natural good looks, his witty conversational style, and reading his short stories.

A) inconsistent tense
B) inconsistent person
C) faulty parallelism

Question

Cynthia Patricia · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  The sentence suffers from faulty parallelism because the items in the series are not in the same form. His natural good looks and his witty conversational style are both phrases describing his qualities, but reading his short stories is an activity, not a quality of Lamont.
