<p>What did everyone get for the last question of sentence error. I put "piercing teeth." I couldn't find a problem in the sentence. But it was the only oddball out. So, I figured it was a parallelism flaw.</p>
<p>i put “one of” because mountain lions was plural, but this was singular.</p>
<p>it should’ve been pierced teeth</p>
<p>a lion doesn’t have pierced teeth…</p>
<p>piercing is an adjective</p>
<p>so, is piercing right or wrong?</p>
<p>there was no error. it’s a game collegeboard likes to play with hard questions.</p>
<p>it was definitely piercing teeth, it was a parallelism error</p>
<p>was experimental the computer section</p>
<p>So wait, it wasn’t “No Error?” >.> Blast.</p>
<p>i put no error</p>
<p>I think I put E on that one. o.O People say wrong, right… eh</p>
<p>I thought writing was easy though.</p>
<p>I think I put “no error” for that question as well, but I don’t remember the other choices. Does anyone remember choice D for that question?</p>
<p>I said no error as well. :P</p>
<p>im pretty sure it was no error…</p>
<p>the answer to that was obviously “one of” since mountain lions was plural</p>
<p>But what would you change ‘one of’ too? “Among”? </p>
<p>And the essay was awesome.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>False, the final part of the list, after and, also contained a gerund.</p>
<p>And, “mountain lions are one of the most ferocious wild creatures.” Naturally, “one of” should be “some of”–both lions and are are plural.</p>
<p>Similarly, you can have a “smoking chimney” to “piercing teeth”; the gerund refers to the teethes ability to PIERCE. Obviously they are capable of piercing. Whoever earlier said “pierced”…past tense =/= gerund.</p>
<p>yess, i knew i “one of” was wrong!</p>
<p>What did you folks put for “In her novels she …”</p>
<p>Some people put the error as “his or her,” but I’m quite sure you need to keep it that way and just put “No Error,” since attempts, which is not underlined, shows that something needs to be kept singular.</p>
<p>the error is “his or her” because it described a noun before it (which i don’t quite remember…think it was youngsters??) which was plural</p>
