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

When doing a close reading, what is involved in the process of annotating a text?
pickupchik [31]
When doing something like this, some find it useful to annotate the text by putting in notes and explanations of what is being said.
(Like pastors at a church when giving the message, or a comedian needing to remember some little things)
It basically just helps the reader not forget side notes or little things that can make the others either more entertained or more helpful.
