PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!

What best correctly completes the sentence with parallel structure.

Mary Shelley was the author of Frankenstein, the daughter of Mary Wollstonecraft,

A. and she was the wife of poet Percy Bysshe Shelley.
B. and she enjoyed writing.
C. and the wife of Percey Shelly.
D. and William Godwin was her father.

Respuesta :

I think the answer is A.

I took the test, choose C and got a 100.

The reason it's C is because parallel structures are repetitive.

Ex. THE author, THE daughter, so to complete the sentence it would be THE wife.

Making  it "and she was the wife" is to long and would sound weird in the sentence, even though it has a "the"
