The unstable economy caused <u>lots of people to lose their jobs.</u>

The correct answer is c. a drastic increase in unemployment.

Explanation: "The unstable economy casued a drastic increase in unemployment" is a paraphrase of the original sentence. Using the word "unemployment" instead of the phrase "people to lose their jobs" gives the sentence a more formal tone.

Answer:

Leaning left and limping light - Alliteration.

Silently, the night took flight - Internal Rhyme.

The story went on and on - Repetition.

So strange, the frail orange in the basket - Assonance.

For a simple walk, An elaborate talk - End rhyme.

We braved the cold, one and all and felt the chill in our very souls - Slant rhyme.

Explanation:

  • <em>The first one is Alliteration as it displays the occurrence of the same letter repeatedly i.e. "P".</em>
  • <em>The second one is Internal rhyme as its middle word "night" rhymes with the last word"flight". </em>
  • <em>The third one is repetition as it indicates the repetition of the story.</em>
  • <em>The fourth excerpt is Assonance as it observes a repetition of vowel sounds "Strange", "orange".</em>
  • <em>The fifth presents the End rhyme as the end words "Walk" and "talk" rhyme with each other.</em>
  • <em>The last one exemplifies the Slant rhyme as it shares the same consonant in "cold" and "chill" with a distinct sound. </em>
