Choose the preposition that would make sense for the following sentence.

she looked the sunset.

toward
between

Toward

Explanation:

She looked toward the sunset. This is the correct answer because you can say "she looked toward the sunset" since it makes a lot of sense and you can't say "she looked between the sunset" because it's just a weird answer... Toward is the best preposition to use here in this sentence.

faulty parallelism is a construction in which two or more parts of a sentence are equivalent in meaning but not grammatically similar in form.

the correct version of this faulty parallelism in the sentence is:

the hikers knew that the hike was six miles, that it usually required the entire day, and it would not be wise to start after 10: 00 a.m.

the problem is the last sentence, the first two have a basic subject+verb+object structure.

so, to give a proper balance to the structure, or better said, to give a parallel structure, we must write a basic s+v+o structure in all three sentences:

the hikers knew that the hike was six miles, that it usually required the entire day, and it would not be wise to start after 10: 00 a.m.
