A. Parallelism
Parallelism is when there is grammar equilibrium in two or more sentences, we can see such a case in these two sentences: They picked handfuls of daisies. They picked bunches of daffodils. On the one hand, the subject is the same They, and on the other the Tense is also the same.

Explanation:
Verb tense error occurs when there is the wrongful use of the tense form of the verb. The verb tense tells the readers of when the action is taking place, and so, the correct usage of the verb tense ensures the correctness of the statements being made.
In order to refrain from making errors in the verb tense structure or form, the consistency of the verb tense must be maintained. The subject-verb agreement must also be taken into consideration so that the correct tense of the verb can be maintained.
Therefore, the <u>errors of the verb tense in the given passage are "have", "know" and "is"</u>.
