The documentary film

by gmatblood » Wed Oct 19, 2011 11:15 am
The documentary film An Inconvenient Truth has the distinction of being Hollywood's first carbon-neutral film: the filmmakers hired energy consultants to determine the movie's "carbon footprint" from production-related travel, clerical and office expenses, and where the cast and crew stayed on location and then offset the emissions they produced with renewable energy credits.

a. where the cast and crew stayed on location
b. the places where the cast and crew stayed on location
c. location accommodations for the cast and crew
d. the cast and crew's location accommodations
e. accommodating the cast and crew on location

This is a parallelism issue.

"where the cast..." is not parallel to production-related travel and "clerical and office expenses"

choices (b) and (d) are also not parallel to the rest of the sentence.

choice (e) uses the "ing" form which is not parallel.
