Answer: I would contend that the right answer is actually the B) Consonance.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little bit on the answer, it can be added that the quote provides the best example of consonance because it involves the repetition of similar consonant sounds - hu<em>ge</em>, spon<em>ges</em>, <em>grow</em>th, hei<em>ght</em>, and li<em>ght</em>. Options A and C are incorrect, since alliteration involves the repetition of the first consonant sound in a series of words, and onomatopoeia is the naming of a thing imitating the sound that is associated with it (i.e. buzz). The quote does feature rhyme, or the repetition of words at the end of each sentence that sound similarly ("height" and "light"), but the quote does not provide the best example of that device.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Stylistic device where the writer repeats the same word or phrase for the proper use of emphasis is called repetition. Authors use it both in poetry and in prose to make the idea clearer. There are many ways how authors employ repetition as it embraces many types such as anaphora, antithesis, epiphora and so on. All this tools are meant to emphasize the meaning of the words but they express this emphasis in different ways.

What is the central idea of the passage colonialism in the United States by Henry Cabot?
Mazyrski [523]
Henry Cabot was most noticeable with this participation with other countries' disagreement with United States colonialism of the Republic of The Philippines.

He viewed that there was no violation of the declaration of independence with US taking over the Philippines as one of its colony as it has never known liberty before once. By being protected and governed by the military power of US, he viewed that the US has provided the Philippines a sense of Liberty and was in no violation of its independence serving as its protector and liberator.
