Answer:

"Infernal" - from the 3 words given the closest in meaning : annoying.

Explanation:

All the words are adjectives, they modify / clarify nouns and pronouns.

Infernal: Formal english: something that  belongs to the underworld of the dead, hellish or diabolic.

Informal english: something annoying or confounded. (extra annoying)

Annoying; irritating, perturbing, unwelcome, pester etc.

Fiery: A fire based object that burns strongly and brightly releasing a lot of heat. Synonyms could be flaming, blazing, ablaze, burning etc.

Unpleasant: something that causes annoyance, is disagreeable, irritable, etc

When making use of the word infernal it is used to emphasis the degree of annoyance beyond normal.

For example: I have a terrible headache caused by the infernal party noise at  my neighbor´s house all night long.

Here the use of infernal goes beyond annoying (extra annoying)

Therefore, from the options provided the closest logical answer is annoying.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

End Rhyme

Explanation:

As you may already know, a rhyme is a literary device that allows others to repeat identical or similar sounds in a few words throughout their literary work. This device is used to promote rhythm and musicality to the work.

An End Rhyme occurs when these sounds are established in the last syllables of the lines, as can be seen in the lines shown in the figure above, where the last syllable of the word "bough" (which is the last word of the first line) rhymes with the last dilaba of the word "rough" (which is the last word in the second line).
