Select the correct text in the passage.

Which sentence in this
excerpt from Ernest Hemingway's "In Another Country" uses parallelism?
In the fall the war was always there, but we did not go to it any more. It was cold in the fall in Milan and the dark came very early. Then the
electric lights came on, and it was
pleasant along the streets looking in the windows. There was much game hanging outside the shops, and the
snow powdered in the fur of the foxes and the wind blew theirtails. The deer hung stiff
and heavy and empty, and small birds blew in the wind
and the wind turned their feathers. It was a cold fall and the wind came down from the mountains.
