question 1 of 10
which phrase, if used to fill the blank, would give the sentence correct parallel structure?
i am a big fan of parties, walking on the beach, and ______
a. karate is a plus
b. the music of the 1970s
c. to meet new people
d. i like pandas

Explanation:

Parallel structure requires matching grammatical forms. The existing items are nouns/gerund phrases ("parties", "walking on the beach"), so we need a matching noun phrase. Option B is a noun phrase, while others use clauses or infinitive phrases that break parallelism.

Answer:

B. the music of the 1970s
