The idiom used in these sentences is “not __, but __”. So, the two phrases that follow ‘not’ and ‘but’ must be parallel. In sentence A, the phrase after ‘but’ starts with the subject but the phrase after ‘not’ doesn’t. Hence, sentence A has a parallelism error. There are no other errors in sentence A. Option A is wrong. All the options that have the same error can be eliminated. In sentence B, “not that it is” and “but it is” are not parallel. Hence, option B is wrong. Similarly, option D is also wrong because the phrases “not it is” and “but that it is” are not parallel. This error is corrected in option C. “Not that it is” and “but that it is” are parallel and hence option C is the correct answer.
