I am familiar with Rule 15 from William Stunk's "The Elements of Style", part of which basically states that in a series, an article or preposition applying to all series members may be placed before each member or at the beginning of the series. For example: In summer, spring, or fall = ...

Re: Parallel sentence structure
Hi Guest, The principle of the parallel structures is about keeping in some degree the uniformity in expressing similar contents and functions in sentences. You don’t have to feel the burden to vary the form of your expressions constantly. Formerly, the learners of foreign languages were...
