Answer:
A. sounds
Explanation:
Rhyme
As you know, words that rhyme end with a similar sound. Rhyme and time, beat and heat, and friends and trends are all examples of rhyming words.
“Mary Had a Little Lamb” has only two rhyming words. Both come at the end of a line of verse.
As in rap lyrics, the use of rhyming in lyric poetry can be very elaborate. As you will see in “The Raven,” rhyming words can come at the end of lines of verse (end rhyme), or they can be located within one or more lines of verse (internal rhyme).
Repetition
Repetition is the use of any element of language—a sound, word, phrase, clause, or sentence—more than once. Poets use many kinds of repetition to add emphasis, drama, or musical rhythm to a poem.
Rhyming is a form of repetition in which the sound is repeated. Now you will learn about two other types of repetition used in lyric poetry: refrain and alliteration.
Alliteration
Alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant sound, such as many Mondays, or dazzling dream. This type of sound repetition can occur at the beginning, middle, or end of the word.
A rhyme is a repetition of similar sounds in two or more words. Rhyming is particularly common in many types of poetry, especially at the ends of lines, and is a requirement in formal verse.

Explanation:
<u>"Similarly" serves to compare. It commonly appears at the beginning of a sentence in which the information presents similarities with an idea or fact that has already been pre</u>sented. An example with "similarly" is:
- Cats are scared of dogs. Similarly, dogs are not very fond of cats.
<u>"So... that" is used with an adjective. The purpose is to amplify that adjective to imply that the characteristic or feeling it describes led to a certain result or consequence.</u> An example with "so... that" is:
- I was so disappointed that I left the room immediately.
<u>"As.. as" is also used with an adjective, and it also indicates a comparison. It shows - unless the sentence is negative, of course - that two people or things are at the same level when it comes to a certain attribute.</u> Example:
- Josh is as talkative as his brother Leon.
