Hi ,

Is OA E

My Approach -- Option A,B,C, and D all break the parallelism except E. In this SC Mandated, Required, and Granted all need to be parallel.

@Experts, Please check and correct me if required.

Many thanks in advance,

Kavin

Would appreciate a little help on the following question:

A New York City ordinance of 1897 regulated the use of bicycles, mandated a maximum speed of eight miles an hour, required of cyclists to keep feet on pedals and hands on handlebars at all times, and it granted pedestrians right-of-way.
A. regulated the use of bicycles, mandated a maximum speed of eight miles an hour, required of cyclists to keep feet on pedals and hands on handlebars at all times, and it granted
B. regulated the use of bicycles, mandated a maximum speed of eight miles an hour, required cyclists to keep feet on pedals and hands on handlebars at all times, granting
C. regulating the use of bicycles mandated a maximum speed of eight miles an hour, required cyclists that they keep feet on pedals and hands on handlebars at all times, and it granted
D. regulating the use of bicycles, mandating a maximum speed of eight miles an hour, requiring of cyclists that they keep feet on pedals and hands on handlebars at all times, and granted
E. regulating the use of bicycles mandated a maximum speed of eight miles an hour, required cyclists to keep feet on pedals and hands on handlebars at all times, and granted

Thanks in advance
To solve this, we need to understand the meaning of the sentence first.
the law about regulating the use of bicycles mandated X.......required y, and granted Z.... (we need to make sure that these 3 things are parallel)

Correct Option: E

it is very easy to start looking into the parallelism error without understanding the meaning and mark option A as the correct answer.
Therefore, always make sure that you understand the meaning of the sentence before looking for other errors.
