My question is for the GMAT expert, why the correct option is correct while, at least for me, the correct option violate the parallelism rule for Neither nor?
I really appreciate comments.
Meanwhile, i check it several times to make sure there is no error in my copying.

Although you have tried to be as error-free as possible while copying, still there are very glaring mistakes. First, it is not 'found of'; it should be 'fond of' in all the choices. Second, in D 'nor nor' is irrational. Copy pasting will be more error-free than manual copying.
But, to come to brass tacks, can you kindly tell us what rule of neither … nor parallelism does B violate?

My bad for not seeing my typos.
Anyway, for me, the exclusion of fond in the answer choice B is puzzling. The question is can we do that?
