Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

In the poem <em>“When I Heard the Learn’d Astronomer”</em> by <em>Walt Whitman</em>, a person is listening to an Astronomer who is evidently well trained with respect to the scientific subject.

The narrator says that his words seem somewhat <u>useless</u>, and they even bore him.

He seems to be the only person who does not understand the discourse of Astronomy, and feels that <u>just by looking at the sky, he can understand many more things about Astronomy than what can be learned with science</u>.

Which sentence is the clearest example of alliteration the door slam sounded like a balloon popping the silky socks slipped on h
pantera1 [17]

Alliteration is the repeating same letter sound in the beginning of close words in a sentence.

The silky socks slipped on her feet easily.

When you say the sentence out loud, you notice that there are many same s sounds in the sentence, so this sentence is the clearest example of alliteration.

silky socks slipped are also adjacent words in the sentence, which further contributes to the clearest example of alliteration.
