Answer:

• The case of McCleskey v. Kemp presented convincing empirical evidence that the race of the victim is the greatest predictor of who gets the death penalty in the United States. The study conducted for that case revealed that offenders in Georgia were eleven times more likely to get the death penalty if the victim was white than if the victim was black. In Alabama, even though 65 percent of all homicide victims were black, nearly 80 percent of the people on death row were there for crimes against victims who were white. Black defendant and white victim pairings increased the likelihood of a death sentence even more.

Answer:

D. alliteration

Explanation:

Oxymoron: figurative language where two contradictive terms appear together (i.e. all alone). There's no oxymoron here, though.

Onomatopoeia: figurative language with a word that represents a sound. There's no onomatopoeia here, though.

Allusion: a form of figurative language where one mentions something indirectly. (i.e. he's a Romeo with the girls). There's no allusion here, though.

Alliteration: figurative language where many words begin with the same sound. There is alliteration here: sudden stillness, everyone snoring.

Therefore, the answer is D.
