Answer:

C). Parallelism.

Explanation:

'Parallelism' is demonstrated as the literary device that involves repetition of words, or phrases with similar or parallel grammatical structure, meter, or sound, etc. It allows the author to propose a pattern as well as a rhythm that promotes the smooth flow of ideas and enhance its persuasiveness.

In the given passage from 'The Grapes Of Wrath', the author employs 'parallelism' which is reflected through the repetition of the phrase 'could not', 'the land', etc. that offers a balance and rhythm to it. It allows the smooth transition of ideas and enhances the understanding and persuasiveness for the readers. Therefore, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Can you me add 10-15 sentence to end the story please,,,,,,,,about the earthquake
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
Life is filled with many scary things in my life but sometimes you need  to make that as a good adventure.  Me and my mom was talking about the Catfish and it ended up being a big talk about it. I ended up writing a story about it and it is a popular story at school. I never ate catfish before so it was kind of  a good topic.

Furkat [3]
The correct answer should be <span>Smiley will bet on anything, on any side.

Smiley doesn't even care whether he supports something or not, as long as he can bet on it. He even bets on which frog can jump the highest against people who don't have frogs, so he catches new frogs for them just so they could bet on it. That's why he gets tricked in the end.</span>
