AnswerClick to flip back
A
Taylor Swift likes singing, dating, and complaining
💡 Explanation:
Parallel structure requires that items in a list or series share the same grammatical form. In Option C, the three activities are all gerunds ("singing", "dating", "complaining"), making it perfectly parallel. Option B is not parallel because "no food" is a noun phrase that does not match the prepositional phrases "dishes in the sink" and "towels in the tub".
