The primary rhetorical device in the sentence is parallelism, since a grammatical structure is repeated for emphasis and persuasion, as explained below.

<h3 /><h3>What is a rhetorical device?</h3>

A rhetorical device is any technique used with persuasion and emphasis as its purpose. That is, anything a writer or a speaker does or says in order to persuade their audience of something is a rhetorical device.

In the excerpt "I’ve seen things on the range. I’ve battled my share of snakes. I’ve dealt with snakes that were animals and snakes that were people," the primary rhetorical device is parallelism. Parallelism is the repetition of a grammatical structure inside a sentence. The structure being repeated here is:

  • noun + that + were + noun
  • snakes that were animals
  • snakes that were people

With the information above in mind, we can select option D as the correct answer for this question.
