Answer:

B. No

Step-by-step explanation:

Faulty parallelism occurs when items in a series do not have the same grammatical structure. Below are examples of sentences with faulty parallelism, followed by their corrections: Faulty: I like to spend my winter holiday skating, skiing, and I enjoy snowboarding as well.

Correct: I like swimming better than diving. & I like to swim better than to dive.

Faulty: I like swimming better than to dive.

Hope this helps!!
