English

Answer:

<em>Option C: Thomas Hardy, "The Convergence of the Twain"</em>

Explanation:

Alliteration is a figure of speech and stylistic device that occurs when some words close to each other begin with the same letter, but also can be the same sound of the letters (C and K : Conspire; King). In the poem, the alliteration happens with the letter S: solitude; sea; with the letter P: pride; planned; and again with the letter S: silly; she.

I'd say the third passage because it's the only one in which alliteration (repeating initial consonant sounds to produce rhythm) is at all detectable ("solitude of the sea", "pride ... that planned", "stilly couches she").

in the following line,"so many crazed men, so much shouting, so much brutality," what type of rhetorical feature is wiesel using
Kitty [74]

A rethorical figure is used to emphazise an idea or a feeling through the literal sence or the order of the words. In this case we can see the use of an anaphora because in the sentence is often the repetition of the first part „so many/much” to describe the image.
