Answer:
Parallelism
Explanation:
The given excerpt is an example of parallelism.
Parallelism (also known as parallel structure or parallel construction) is a figure of speech in which phrases in a sentence are grammatically the same or similar in construction, sound, meaning, or meter. The purpose of parallelism is to give balance, clarity, pattern, or rhythm.
In the second sentence of the excerpt, we have several repetitions:
- <u>There was </u>no hurry, for <u>there was</u> nowhere to go. (there + past simple tense + negation)
- ... nowhere <u>to go</u>, nothing <u>to buy</u> and no money <u>to buy</u> it with, nothing<u> to see</u> outside the boundaries of Maycomb County. (negation + infinitive)
- ... <u>nothing to buy</u> and no money to buy it with, <u>nothing to see</u> outside the boundaries of Maycomb County. (a part of the repetition I previously pointed out - nothing + infinitive).

Dear Dr. Remo;
<span>The correct answers are: 1)4 Mom doesn't know is the subject or main clause, in the kitchen isn't a clause as it lacks a verb and a subject, the 4rth choice is the most complete one. 2)1 It can't be the object since "That she read the assignment" is the "subject" of the verb itself, but it isn't the proper subject because the true subject is "Kam's choice"; it is an appositive clause related to the subject. 3)A the verb is a nominal predicative, thus technically it would be a direct object, but most grammar quizzes or books won't consider it as such. The most correct answer would therefore be A, because reversing the sentence this role would be possible.</span>
