Read the passage. From John F. Kennedy’s Inaugural Address And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you

—ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man. Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us here the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. Why is this passage an example of parallelism?
It repeats the word “ask” in sentences with similar structures.

It reiterates the main idea and theme of the speech.

It contrasts “ask” and “ask not” in each of the paragraphs.

It directly addresses the audience using second person.

Answer: It repeats the word "ask" in sentences with similar structures.

Explanation: The second and fourth options are completely unrelated with the concept of parallelism. The first and third options, on the other hand, are both related to parallelism, but the third option must be discarded because the contrast between "ask" and "ask not" is not repeated in each of the paragraphs; only the verb <em>ask</em> in its imperative form is repeated in each sentence.

Compare and contrast close and distant narrative styles
KonstantinChe [14]
Narrative distance refers to the difference between the character's point of views and the reader's point of view. All the characters in a story exist with some amount of distance between themselves. Close and distant narrative styles simply refer to the amount of distance between the readers and the characters. Hope this helps.
