2. choose the sentence that does not contain a parallelism error. a. you need to be able to speak, to read, and to understand spanish in order to be an interpreter. b. you need to be able to speak, read, and to understand spanish in order to be an interpreter. c. you need to be able to speak, reading, and understanding spanish in order to be an interpreter. d. you need to be able to speak, to read, and understanding spanish in order to be an interpreter.

In order to achieve parallelism, all the structures in a sentence have to follow the same grammatical structure. Usually parallelism is detected in the verb tenses used in the sentence, or in the grammatical structure of the items of a list. In this case, the sentence that does not contain a parallelism error is A: You need to be able to speak, to read, and to understand Spanish in order to be an interpreter. All of the items of the list follow the infinitive form of the verb. The rest of the sentences are incorrect because at least one item of the list is grammatically different from the rest.

multiple settings

< > reasoning \ evidence < >

novels have multiple settings. a setting is a place or surrounding when a main event or event takes place. not everything happens in just one scene or setting. yes, there can be one *main* setting, but there is definitely not just one. b is incorrect. novels do not have limited characters. there are many characters in a novel, depending on how many the writer wishes to add in. c is incorrect. there is not just a single theme. there are many themes. another word for "theme" is the subject. there can be many subjects and topics. once again, there are many, depending on however many the author wishes to add or include. d is incorrect. yes, novels *can* have no solutions, based on what the author would like. but typically, novels have a solution. the solution might be in "book 5", but there is normally still a solution.
