The predicate defines what the subject does. A predicate can be complete or simple. It is a complete predicate if it includes the main verb or verbs used in the sentence plus the other words that adds more description to the subject. But if the predicate only contains the verb used in to describe the subject, then it is a simple predicate. So in the given sentence, the simple predicate is the word "finished".

The line using the words tomorrow repetitively shows repetition, the line using the word "and" as the conjunction is polysyndeton, and the sentence about the best and the worst of the time is an example of asyndeton.

<h3>What are asyndeton and polysyndeton?</h3>

Asyndeton is the grammatical sentences that lack the use of the conjunction words and are omitted or absent deliberately. The conjunctions like the word nor, or, and, etc. are not included. Hence, "It was the best of times; it was the worst of times" is the asyndeton.

The polysyndeton is the deliberate inclusion of the conjunction words like nor, and, but, if, etc, in the sentence. The conjunction or the linking words are used repetitively in the same sentence. Hence, "I can't wait to see a show <em>and</em> a museum <em>and</em> the zoo <em>and</em> the parks" is an example of polysyndeton.

"We will look to <em>tomorrow</em>, and <em>tomorrow</em>, and <em>tomorrow</em>" is an example of repetition as the same word, "tomorrow" is used multiple times in the sentence. "He would walk through rain, snow, sleet, hail" is an example of parallelism.
