Answer:

D). "Traverse the lane in record time."

Explanation:

Alliteration is described as the literary device that employs the 'repetition of a similar consonant sound at the beginning of two or words in a line or phrase of poetry. It primarily functions to engage the readers' interest as it instills rhythm and melody to the poem along with a specified mood and connotation.

In the given question, the option that does not exemplify 'alliteration' would be 'traverse....time' as there is a long interval between the repetition of consonant sound 't' in 'traverse' and 'time'. Therefore, it fails to create the intended rhythm and capture the readers' attention and interest. Thus, it also fails to create the intended effect and hence, option D is the correct answer. The other options involve repetition of consonant sound that creates a rhythm in the line like 't' in 'train and strain', 'w' in 'who will win', 'f' in 'fin-like feet flap', etc. Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.

Which sentence uses punctuation correctly?
slavikrds [6]
<span>Punctuations are much needed when we construct sentences. They greatly affect how the sentence will mean to the reader depending on where they are added. They divide words, sentences, and clauses to give more emphasis on the idea being voiced out. In the sentences above, only letter d which is “At times, elephants show extraordinary intelligence.” makes sense. The idea of the sentence is that there moments that elephants exceed to their expected behaviors and actions which reflect their intelligence.</span>

I would chose B
as the best answer because the word interpretation means the understanding or explaining of something so since William is giving his opinion/ understanding of death that would make it the interpretation.

Find examples of rhyme, alliteration, and repetition in the poem
mart [117]

Answer:

Alliteration, repetition.

Explanation:

Alliteration: This is the repetition of the initial sounds.

For example: "From somewhere far beyond, the flag of fate's caprice unfurled."

Repetition: This is when there is repetition of words, phrases, lines, stanzas, etc. The repetition is used to make emphasis.

For example:

"The best kinds of people are warm and kind,

They are always there and they never mind.

The best kinds of people smile and embrace,

They support you with strength and grace."
