The correct answer is: A. The author repeats words and employs parallelism.

Indeed, the sentences are structured in a parallel manner with regards to their components. The first sentence includes the subject (the little farmers=they) plus the verb conjugated in simple past tense (watched) and the rest of the predicate. The second sentence is structured almost exactly in the same manner with the exception that the subject is represented by the personal pronoun “they”. The use of anaphora between the second and third sentence is another typical feature of parallelism.

Why does the author include details about the lins night out at the Lakeview restauraut in the all American slurp
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The answer is "to demonstrate that narrator's difficulty adapting to American society".

Explanation:

Lensey Namioka's "The All-American Slurp" is a story. A migrant family's uncomfortable experiences in a foreign state are recounted. As just a consequence, "Lakeview" was an expensive chain restaurant. Aside from Chinese restaurants, it was rare for all the customers to make at such establishments in America. Again for the narrator's struggles to adjust to American society, this was necessary to include the details. However, they found it hard to adapt.
