4. Epiphora

1. To get ahead, a person needs to have good goals, study hard and plan well for the future.

2. The professor needs to either publish more books or work with his students.

3. She is having good days, bad days, long days and short days.

4. Hike the Appalachian Trail is exploring the Panama Canal and the Mississippi ford.

Explanation:

I have been able to show the four rhetorical devices used in the given passage.

Parallelism is the use of a particular grammatical structure in a sentence. We see it in the line: "We all should have our say in the political leaders we elect: <em>the young student and the old retiree; the struggling worker and the wealthy businessman</em>."

Anaphora is the rhetorical device that repeats a word or phrase in a sentence at the beginning of successive classes.

It is seen in the line:  "It is a privilege, it is a right, it is a duty."

Alliteration is the rhetorical device that repeats the same letter or sound at the beginning of words that adjacent or closely connected.

It is seen in the line: "You must vote! If you love your country, you must vote. If you believe that your country can be better, you must vote."

Epiphora is the rhetorical device that repeats a word or phrase at the end of  successive clauses.

It is seen in the line: "You must vote! If you love your country, <em>you must vote</em>. If you believe that your country can be better, <em>you must vote</em>."

storchak [24]

Answer:

John didn't sleep well because C. he heard heavy traffic and car horns.

Explanation:

John and Audrey are characters in the story "The First Day of School", by R. V. Cassil. The story begins with John waiting for his sister Audrey as the time for the them to go to school gets closer. Audrey has slept all night, but John hasn't. He could hear heavy traffic at midnight, so he wasn't able to sleep at all after that:

<em>She must have slept all right - and for this John felt both envy and a faint resentment. He had not really slept since midnight. The heavy traffic in town, the long wail of horns as somebody raced in on the U.S. highway holding the horn button down, and the restless murmur, like the sound of a celebration down in the courthouse square, had kept him awake after that. Each time a car had passed their house his breath had gone tight and sluggish. It was better to stay awake and ready, he had  told himself, than to be caught asleep.</em>

It turns out that John and Audrey are African Americans. Their first day of school is filled with tension and anxiety, since they and a few others will be the first ones to attend a school for white people in his town. The National Guard has been called to protect them from all the people who have gathered to jeer and boo - and maybe even attack - them as they make their way to school.
