In this passage, Alliteration is present in the words "nodded, nearly napping".

Alliteration is a literary device that consists of the repetition of a consonant sound at the beginning of words or stressed syllables of close proximity. The three words "nodded, nearly, napping" begin with the sound /n/. The effect that alliteration has in this passage is that <u>it resembles the situation of falling asleep</u>. Thus, the reader can experience that through the word choice of the poem.

In a way all of the given.  It gives you a greater understanding of the ending of the story, and helps you to perhaps think about it more deeply.  As you close read it, you have to actually understand the story as more than just words on paper, or a screen.  It also helps you to understand the story all and all, and to gain a deeper understandment of the literary meanings of the story in general, as well as gaining a surface and in depth meaning of the story and more.  There isn't just one answer better than another, because they are all qualities that close reading will give you for that story.
