Oxymorons are two words that should not go together as they produce a nonsensical construction that is still understood because of its figurative meaning. An example would be "The Bookful Blockhead, ignorantly read,
With Loads of Learned Lumber in his Head,"

Answer:

10- Oxymoron

The words "safety" and "hazard" are right by each other and those are complete opposites so that is an oxymoron.

11- alliteration

The use of the b's at the beginning of a lot of the words is alliteration because it is the repetition of a similar sound at the beginning of the word. The only other one that it could be is consonance because consonance also repeats a sound, but only consonants and it is usually at the end of the word. Even though b is a consonant, I don't think it is consonance because the repetition appears at the beginning of the word.

12- Anaphora

This is anaphora because the word "singing" is being repeated in most of the clauses in order to place emphasis on it.
