Answer:

The answer to your question would be that the euphemism in the sentence politely masks any unpleasant details of the mayor's illness.

Explanation:

The term "euphemism" refers to polite, indirect expressions that replace words and phrases considered harsh and polite, or which suggest something unpleasant. The fact is that it is not necessary to know the details of the mayor's illness if he/she is not dealing with a severe disease. Therefore, the euphemism avoids the inclusion of any detail.

The answer is c, because it is clearly not an alliteration, and there is no repetition. An end rhyme is when words on the end of lines sentences rhyme with the words on the ends of other sentences; where as an internal rhyme has rhymes in the same sentence.
