In a sentence, parallelism creates balance between two halves of a sentence. Good writers strive to create parallelism in their sentences.

Example:Right: You need to work quickly and decisively. -- both adverbs end in -ly and go together.

Wrong: You need to work quickly and decisive.

Research is the best method to determine opinion from facts.
