Help!!

<p>Well it's a sentence that i came across in a book and i don't know whats wrong with it so please do help =DD</p>

<p>-He worked in the lumber camps during the summer not because of the money but because he wanted to strengthen his muscles by doing hard physical labor.</p>

<p>Thanks!!</p>

<p>Uhmm. I’m not positive (I don’t know the answer choices), but I think this might be a parallelism issue.
It should be:
He worked in the lumber camps during the summer not because he wanted money but because he wanted to strengthen his muscles by doing hard physical labor.</p>

<p>Or another version of that sentence that is also parallel. </p>

<p>“because of” doesn’t parallel with “because he”</p>

<p>Again, I’m not positive.</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>
