Dear all,
Could anyone clarify me please the following:
1) The consultant is looking for a cafe that has confortable chairs and THAT provides free internet access.
--> I do not understand why the use of THAT is neceessary considering that there is a parallel structure.
2) Many teachers choose to seek employment in the suburbs rather thanTO face low salaries in the city.
--> Why here the use of TO is wrong?
3) In california, unlikeIN florida, the humidity is moderate.
--> Why we cannot use IN? Because then "unlike" would be comparing clauses?
Thank you very much!!

Thank you for your response.! It has helped. Sorry my late repply, i have been spinning around the grammar matter.
Then, regarding the first sentence, if i don’t use “that” and hence I want to mean (even if it doesn’t make much sense):The consultant is looking for a cafe [that has comfortable chairs] and provides free internet access ... I would need to repeat the subject (he; the consultant) after the “and” right? I cannot leave the complex sentence without a subject..?
Thanks a lot!
