  1. Question 1

    Q1. Identify the correct sentence using parallel structure in a list.

    • A) The manager asked us to arrive on time, completing our tasks, and behave professionally.
    • B) The manager asked us to arrive on time, to complete our tasks, and to behave professionally.
    • C) The manager asked us arriving on time, to complete our tasks, and to behave professionally.
    • D) The manager asked us to arrive on time, to complete our tasks, and behaving professionally.

    Answer: The manager asked us to arrive on time, to complete our tasks, and to behave professionally.

    Explanation: Parallel structure requires that items in a list use the same grammatical form; all three infinitive phrases ("to arrive," "to complete," "to behave") maintain consistent parallel structure.
