Answer:

4) Micah told Shelly that she will take notes, she will complete the test, and she will get a good grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sentences with parallelism have every verb in the same tense and every noun in agreement. This means that each section of the sentence, so the parts separated by commas, should be in the same structure. The first 3 answer choices have different tenses used. However, the 4th sentence is entirely in future tense and therefore correct.
