a quick worker
I am careful
How can you make them alike?
I am a _________ and __________ worker.

this is the fersure correct way for parrellel structures
The correct parallel structure in the sentence "I am both a quick worker, and I am careful" can be achieved by using parallel elements. Parallel structure means arranging words, phrases, or clauses in a way that all items in a series or list have the same grammatical form.
To make the sentence parallel, you could rephrase it as: "I am both a quick worker and a careful worker." In this revised version, the parallel structure is achieved by using the same noun form ("worker") after both "quick" and "careful". This creates symmetry and ensures that the sentence flows smoothly.
