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.
