This text shows several examples of multiple parallel clausal structures. One example particularly shows the repetition of subordinate clauses to describe the preceding noun phrase, producing a certain dramatic effect. The example is:

a) “I was a mother, had less time … and wanted to work someplace” (l. 29)
b) “my principal is wonderful, supports us and does what’s best for children” (l. 56)
c) “They should work under experienced … They should have small” (l. 45)
d) “because my colleagues are gifted … and because I continually learn from them” (l. 58)
e) “who had no food at home, were the victims of sexual abuse, were homeless” (l. 32)
