Whats wrong with these sentences!?

[Secret_Asian_Man]

<p>I think for the first one “been running desperately” actually makes more sense than “run desperately” because it is a continuous action.</p>

<p>

To insist that a poem means whatever one wants it to mean is often to ignore the intention and even the words of the poet</p>

<p>Explanation: The error here is that the incorrect sentence lacks parallelism. Notice how the subject phrase starts with “to insist”, meaning that the predicate must also begin with an infinitive verb (In this case “to ignore”).

</p>

<p>Are you sure that’s right? I’m not sure if parallelism applies because the two verbs are in completely different parts of the sentence. To me it seems like it should be “ignorant of.”</p>
