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").

Answer:

Active reconstruction of events alters our memory of the important and unimportant events of our lives

Explanation:

According to the study of Cognitive Psychology, memory can be defined as an ability to receive information, store it and recall it when required.

The memory works in three stages namely encoding, storage, and retrieval. Also, there are three types of memories: sensory memory, short term memory, and long term memory.

The key theme that has been found in memory research is that is an active process of alteration of memory of important and unimportant events through the process of reconstruction. When new memories are created, it alters some of the important or unimportant events from memories of the past.

For example, one would have a very vague memory of childhood because new memories are created.
