When I was young enough to still spend a long time buttoning my shoes in the morning, I'd listen toward the hall: Daddy upstairs

was shaving, in the bathroom, and Mother downstairs was frying the bacon. They would begin whispering back and forth to each other up and down the stairwell. My father would whistle his phrase, my mother would try to whistle, then hum hers backI drew my buttonhook in and out and listened to it -know it was "The Merry Widow." The difference was, their song almost floated with laughter. how different from the record, which growled from the beginning, as if the Victrola were only slowly being wound up. They kept it running between them, up and down the stairs where I was now just about ready to run clattering down and show them my shoes. What is the effect of the parallelism used in the above excerpt? It establishes the rhythm of a duet to echo the song. It expresses the same ideas. It mirrors opposite ideas. It is a paradox.

Answer:

It establishes the rhythm of a duet to echo the song.

Explanation:

Parallelism refers to the use of the same grammatical structures in a series of sentences. Most of the time, parallelism is used in order to provide a sense of rhythm to the text. In this case, parallelism provides a sense of rhythm that is meant to echo the song, as it reminds the reader of a duet. As the song is also meant to be a duet (father and mother) the structure of the text highlights the subject matter.

Multiple new sources have printed stories about secret government programs. Why do some people see the papers’ actions as patrio
Ilya [14]

Answer: People may view these actions as patriotic because the papers’ are putting things that the government have been dishonest about into question. This may also be viewed as patriotic, becuse it is putting these programs out into the open, so that the public is aware of the things that the government may have been trying to hide. Others may veiw these actions as wrong because they may think that the govenment has a right to hide certain things. Some may think that the publishers should be tried under the Espionage Act because they may veiw the story as being disloyal to the government, as well as invading the governments privacy.
