Hi folks,
I have a quick question regarding to parallelism issues that ı stumbled on
In many of the world’s regions, increasing pressure on water resources has resulted both from expanding development, changes in climate, and from pollution, so that the future supply in some of the more arid areas is a concern going forward.
A. both from expanding development, changes in climate, and from pollution, so that the future supply in some of the more arid areas is a concern going forward
B. both from expanding development or changes in climate, and pollution, so that future supplies in some of the more arid areas are a concern
C. from expanding development, changes in climate, and also from pollution, so that the future supply in some of the more arid areas is a matter of concern going forward
D. from expanding development, changes in climate, and pollution, so that future supplies in some of the more arid areas are a concern
E. from expansion of development, changes in climate, and from pollution, so that supplies in some of the more arid areas are a future concern
According to OG guide the answer is D, whereas; ı picked E
OG explanation says that in choice E from distorts parallelism
So my first question is; if we put preposition "from" before "changes in climate" in choice D would parallelism be correct?
because in D, since "changes in climate" lack a preposition, whereas, preceding and anteceding nouns have a preposition (from) it bugs the parallelism but if we add preposition to "changes in climate" it would fix the parallelism
Second question is; answer D, "expanding development" is a simple gerund (ı guess) however "changes in climate" and "pollution" are action noun. How is it possible that action noun be parallel with an simple gerund?
Expert views are highly valued,
Thank you for your answers
