Read the excerpt from lincoln's second inaugural address. with malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as god gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in . . which word from the excerpt creates parallel structure?
with
see
finish
work

The correct answer is “with”. The word from the excerpt that creates parallel structure is the word “with”. By definition, parallelism is a rhetorical device which uses components in a sentence that are grammatically the same; or similar in their construction, sound, or meaning. This rhetorical device can be found in literary works as well as in ordinary conversations. In this case, the component (word) “with” has been used to introduce three different phases in the same clause: “With malice toward none”, “with charity for all”, and “with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right”.

in ray bradbury's short story "a sound of thunder", mr. eckels's fearfulness leads to drastic consequences for the rest of the world.

in the story, mr. eckels, who is a hunter, hires a time travel company to travel to the age of dinosaurs. although he is excited for the hunting expedition at the beginning, when they reach there and mr. eckels sees the tyrannosaurus, he feels frightened. as he is afraid of the tyrannosaurus, he steps off the path although he has been warned not to do it. by stepping off the path, the entire course of the future is affected: mr. eckart alters the future by stepping on a butterfly, which causes a new man to be elected president in the future. in that way, it is mr. eckart's fearfulness what triggers 'the butterfly effect' and what leads to drastic consequences for the rest of the world.
