Churchill makes use of parallel construction partically in the last paragraph of our exerpt. He gradually builds his case and concludes in a way to raise people to his cause. He repeatedly begins his sentences with "We shall.." This makes it sound like he already has a recruitment of people on his side- whether or not he does we do not know. "<span>We shall not flag nor fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France and on the seas and oceans; we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air. We shall defend our island..." This is an extremely effective and commonly used rhetorical device.</span>

Churchill frequently uses parallel construction by repeating words that express the same or similar ideas:

We shall not flag nor fail. We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France and on the seas and oceans; we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air. We shall defend our island whatever the cost may be; we shall fight on beaches, landing grounds, in fields, in streets and on the hills. We shall never surrender and…

The repetition of the phrase “We shall” conveys determination and a sense of purpose. It arouses the audience's emotions, making the speech captivating, inspiring, and memorable. It also draws the audience’s attention to Churchill’s central idea of never quitting. PLATO

Answer:

It shows he is arrogant because he talks just as much as Pickering.

Explanation:

"Pygmalion" is a play written by George Bernard Shaw.

Henry Higgins was a professor and the author of Higgins' Universal Alphabet. He is cold-hearted and rude though he was very educated. In Act 1, is the first time when the readers get to meet Higgins. He was sitting at the Covent Garden with others who were waiting for the rain to stop. He was sitting at the back of the crowd noting everyone and making notes.

On page 5, the character of Higgins is developed by picturizing him as an arrogant man as he talks so much. His conversation with Pickering reveals that he is a rude and arrogant man and not a gentleman as one would expect an educated man to be.

Thus the correct answer is the first option.
