In this excerpt, the rhetorical technique that the passage best exemplify is:
A. Parallelism
Parallelism is when there is grammar equilibrium in two or more sentences, we can see such a case in these two sentences: They picked handfuls of daisies. They picked bunches of daffodils. On the one hand, the subject is the same They, and on the other the Tense is also the same.
We find no evidence of exaggeration of any type, nor there is satire or irony.

</span><span>- "The chopping block one man was using to split his cordwood."
</span><span>- "In front of almost all of them was a dory or two, some overturned"
Modern homes are not usually shingled, and the shingled style for houses was popular long ago. Also, men usually don't need to use chopping blocks to split the cord wood because stores have this readily available. Finally, a dory is a type of boat and it's rather old-fashioned in my perspective.
Hope this helps! :)</span>
