It's not parallelism. The idea is not repeated in a slightly different way.

It's not a simile or metaphor. Compared to what? The sentence is a fragment.

That only leaves A but it's not a good answer. The sentence is incomplete.

Did you leave something out?

If you had 
He who gives to himself entirely to his fellow man, gives entirely to himself.
That would be parallel.

Answer:

D. Parallelism.

Explanation:

Parallelism is a rhetoric device used in writing to create a harmonious effect.  It is the repetition of grammatical elements that are same either in their construction, meaning, sound or meter.

Henry David Thoreau was an American essayist, philosopher and poet.

In his essay, "Civil Disobedience" or "Resistance to Civil Government", he talks about that the people should not allow government to overrule their conscience. In his views, the government instead of being just is an agent of corruption and injustice.

In his speech, he says,

<em>"He who gives himself entirely to his fellow-men appears to them useless and selfish; but he who gives himself partially to them is pronounced a benefactor and philanthropist.(66-67)" </em>

The rhetorical device that Thoreau had used in this part of his speech is  Parallelism.

Repetition is a strategy for remembering information in which you read, write and say the information a number of times.
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

When trying to memorize

something, there are many different methods one may choose to employ.  Repetition is one of the most popular

ways.  When we look at the prompt you

provided, we see three steps—(a) read the information, (b) write the information,

and (c) say the information.  These three

steps help you experience the information in more ways than just one like if

you were only reading the information.  

These three steps have you reading, performing the mechanical action of

writing, then hearing/listening (because you’ll hear yourself reading).  In addition to the repetition, by

diversifying your experiences with the material, you’ll best be able to

remember what it is you seek to remember.

In "Fahrenheit 451" why does Montag want to read books?
Flauer [41]
<span>Montag realizes that in his day, people are generally not happy. He knows that, in the past, people were happy. He tries to figure out what is different now and the main thing he can think of is that there used to be books and now there aren't any books. Also because in one of the chapters he watches the old lady burn with her books so if people are willing to die with their books than there has to be some sort of value and meaning to them.</span>
