Answers
Answer:
Sentence C is an example of faulty coordination
Explanation:
Faulty coordination is seen when the combination of multiple clauses in a sentence cannot show any connection. As the result the sentence has no meaning.
In the above-mentioned sentences:
1. Locksley High has a great library, and the newly remodeled media center is excellent too.
The library and media centre are related to the facilities offered in the school and are related. So the sentence shows coordination.
2. My parents attended Locksley High, and now my sister and I attend the same school.
In this sentence, a relation can be detected between the parents attending the school and thereafter the children attending the same school. Hence, the clauses are related.
3. Locksley High School is in Locksley County, and I have been a student for three years.
In this sentence, the geographical location of the school and the fact that the author is attending the school makes no sense. This is an example of faulty coordination.
4. Locksley High School opened in 1924, and it has been filled with students ever since.
Here, the clauses highlight that the school was opened in 1924 and has helped children since its opening. The clauses in the sentences are logical and coordinated.
