Question

Which sentence is an example of faulty parallelism?

Paul enjoys singing but, he is not very good at it .

Paul prefers the guitar to playing the saxophone.

Paul plays the guitar, the saxophone, ant the bass.

Paul wants to join the band, start a choral group and take more guitar lessons.

Answer 1

The sentence that shows faulty parallelism is Paul wants to join the band, start a choral group and take more guitar lessons.This is faulty because a coordinating conjunction "and" is utilized to connect parts which are different and not parallel. The first two parts have to do with groups, except the last part of it. 

Answer 2

The sentence which is an example of faulty parallelism is Paul prefers the guitar to playing the saxophone. This is a faulty parallelism because it uses an incorrect grammar and the use of the noun and verb agreement in this sentence.
