Idiom; Parallelism
Although try and is an idiom often used in
colloquial language, in this sentence, to is needed
after will try to maintain parallelism: to establish
and to encourage. Th e correct preposition following
restrictions is not for but on. Are to be allowed to
grow is wordy; the infi nitive to be should be
omitted for a tighter and clearer expression.
A To should replace and before establish;
restrictions is incorrectly followed by for
rather than on; to be is wordy and should be
omitted.
B Here, the passive-voice construction
able to be grown by is weak and wordy;
the constructions and establish … and
encouraging … are not parallel.
C Will try establishing does not show intent or
purpose; restrictions must be followed by on,
not for; parallelism is lost.
D Passive-voice construction capable of being
grown by is weak and wordy; encouraging and
to establish are not parallel.
E Correct. To establish indicates purpose and
parallels to encourage; restrictions is correctly
followed by on; the wordiness of the verb
phrase has been eliminated.
