Answer:

Consonance

Explanation:

Consonance is a literary device in which identical or similar consonants are repeated in neighboring words whose vowel sounds are different. In the given excerpt, the consonant L is repeated several times:

  • Blue with all malice, like a madman's flash...

The opposite of consonance is assonance - the repetition of vowel sounds.

Alliteration is a literary device in which a series of words begins with the same sound (not the same letter!).

Anaphora is a literary device in which the same word (or a group of words) is repeated at the beginning of neighboring clauses.

What is wrong with the following theme statement? Select all that apply. Romeo and Juliet demonstrates that people should follow
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

c. References specific plot points  

Explanation:

Although Romeo and J * really show that we must follow our hearts, this is not the theme of the story narrative created by Shakespeare, but a specific point in the plot of that story.

The theme of a work does not refer to a specific point on the plot, but rather the general message that the narrative covers.

In Romeu and J * the theme would be the violence caused by love and the struggle of individuals to get rid of the past of their families. Within these themes, the romance between the two young people and their willingness to follow their hearts do not cover all the complexity and nuances of the work and therefore cannot be considered the theme.
