Which segment from Robert Hayden’s “Frederick Douglass” demonstrates parallelism?
a. When it is finally ours, this freedom, this liberty, this beautiful and terrible thing, needful to man as air, usable as earth; when it belongs at last to all, when it is truly instinct, brain matter, diastole, systole
b. this beautiful and terrible thing, needful to man as air, usable as earth
c. when it is more than the gaudy mumbo jumbo of politicians
d. none of the above

Respuesta :

A. When it is finally ours, this freedom, this liberty, this beautiful and terrible thing. Needful to man as air, usable as earth; when it belongs at last to all, when it is truly instinct, brain matter, diastole, systole.

Specifically, the first sentence in that segment is the best example of parallelism. It demonstrates the structure by listing things as "this XX".
