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: the young student and the old retiree; the struggling worker and the wealthy businessman."

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, you must vote. If you believe that your country can be better, you must vote."

Anise and fennel are both flowering plants in the carrot family. Anise is native to
Southwest Asia and the eastern Mediterranean region, but fennel is native specifically to
the shores of the Mediterranean. The two are often confused for one another because
they share a similar flavor profile that of black licorice. However, only the seeds of anise
are edible, whereas the entire fennel plant can be eaten. The fennel bulb can be served
as a vegetable, while the leaves and seeds are often used to flavor soups, sauces, meats,
and teas. Just like fennel seeds, anise seeds are used to flavor teas and a wide variety of
dishes. In addition, they are used in the production of essential oils.
