Think about a time you have signed off on a “terms of agreement.” did you read the terms? in a short paragraph, describe the situation below, and explain what you might do differently now. if you have never signed off on a “terms of agreement,” write a short paragraph about what you will do if you encounter one in the future. make sure you use correct spelling and punctuation, and include transition words such as "first," "second," and "then" to organize your sentences.

I have signed off on a "Terms of Agreement" before, and sadly, I did not read this carefully. When I signed off, I assumed this was what everyone did, and did not consider the risk carefully. I did so when buying an app that I thought was free. First, I signed the agreement without reading it. Later, when I wanted to delete the app, it charged me to my credit card. Afterwards, I tried to complain, but the company informed me that I had consented to payment. I went back to the agreement and realized this was true. Now, I read everything carefully just in case.

faulty parallelism is a construction in which two or more parts of a sentence are equivalent in meaning but not grammatically similar in form.

the correct version of this faulty parallelism in the sentence is:

the hikers knew that the hike was six miles, that it usually required the entire day, and it would not be wise to start after 10: 00 a.m.

the problem is the last sentence, the first two have a basic subject+verb+object structure.

so, to give a proper balance to the structure, or better said, to give a parallel structure, we must write a basic s+v+o structure in all three sentences:

the hikers knew that the hike was six miles, that it usually required the entire day, and it would not be wise to start after 10: 00 a.m.

the type of supporting detail is fact!
