I can't highlight and copy in order for my free version of Ultra Hal text-to-speech gizmo to faulteringly read the book with Microsoft Anna's voice (yuck). So was wondering if there's a built in reader. (The whole forum must know by now that I have attacks of labyrinthitis.)
No it doesn't, that is a kindle only feature.

Sometimes there's a "download to Kindle for PC" link on the Amazon page, but not always. Does this mean it's not available for the PC software? Or that the link is elsewhere?

Sorry for all the questions. Thanks in advance for your help.
I am not sure about this one, I have never encountered a book which I purchased which was not able to be downloaded to K4PC. As a side note, all of my purchased books, those for free, the ones I paid for as well as my borrowed books from the library, are in my K4PC software.
