[amp_mcq option1=”Rhyme” option2=”Alliteration” option3=”Pun” option4=”Oxymoron” correct=”option2″]
The correct answer is B. Alliteration.
Alliteration is the repetition of the same consonant sound at the beginning of words that are close together. For example, “Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.”
Rhyme is the repetition of similar sounds at the end of words. For example, “cat” and “hat.”
A pun is a play on words that relies on the multiple meanings of a word or phrase. For example, “I’m reading a book about anti-gravity. I just can’t put it down.”
An oxymoron is a figure of speech that combines two contradictory terms. For example, “jumbo shrimp” or “military intelligence.”
