Parallelism: In Longer Passages

Sometimes writers emphasize a point by using parallel structure for several sentences in succession.
  Example Winning the Oscar meant a reward for years of hard work. It meant a gateway to new jobs. It meant a sense that he had finally made it in Hollywood. It also meant he had an impressive trophy to display on his mantel.
