What is rising action ? Why does most of a story take place in this stage

A rising action is often a series of incidents that create suspense and interest in the story leading up to the climax. Most of the story takes place in this stage because it leads up to the most exciting part of a story (climax) and it the most action in the story. The entire plot of a narrative depends on the events that happen in the rising action.

credit should be the answer

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.
