Explanation:

The plot of a story can be divided into five elements:

Exposition - the element found at the beginning of the story. It provides us with background information about the setting, characters, and events that take place in the story.
Rising action - a series of events revolving around the central conflict of the story creates tension.
Climax - the tension is at its highest point. This is the most important turning point in the story.
Falling action - the tension decreases after the climax.
Resolution - the part that follows the falling action. The central conflict is resolved. This is the story's conclusion.

These elements take place in the order I've listed them in. We simply need to pay attention to the order in which the given events from The Adventures of Tom Sawyer take place. This is how this question should be solved.

Which sound device is present in lines three and four?

12345 [234]

The correct answer is: [A]:

_________________________________________

" assonance " .

_________________________________________

Note: Lines 3 and 4 ; as follows:

_________________________________________

" And many an eye has dance to see

That banner in the sky ; "

_________________________________________

Note that "assonance" refers to the "repetition of vowel sounds" ; that occur "with" words that are close by.

_________________________________________

Note the following words that in "lines 3 and 4" that contain that;

in bold font; as follows:

________________________________________

" And many an eye has dance to see

That banner in the sky ; "

_______________________________________

The presents of "repetition of [a] vowel sound" is quite evident within "lines 3 and 4" — as shown above.

{Note: Try reading the lines aloud and notice 'vowel sounds' that are indicated bold font and underlined — as shown above.}.

_______________________________________

"Alliteration" would be incorrect; since "alliteration" would refer to the present of the repetition of the same consonant sounds; or the same vowel sounds; at the beginning of the first syllables of, words that follow each other—as well as words that appear close together. There is no evidence of this in "lines 3 and 4" of the given passage.

We can rule out "end rhyme" ; since "see" and "sky" do not "rhyme" —nor do "dance to sea" and "in the sky"— which occur at the end of lines 3 and 4.

We can rule out "onomatopoeia" — since there is no evidence of the use of words that sound like themselves (i.e. no evidence of words such as "rattle, jolt, murmur, gargle, buzz, chirp — within "lines 3 and 4."}.

Wishing you the best!
