Answer:

The phrase from “In Flanders fields” which contains an example of assonance is:

B “ In Flanders fields, the poppies blow”

Step-by-step explanation:

Assonance is a figure of speech in which the sound of the words or the syllables has a resemblance with each other. The resemblance of a vowel sound is said to be assonance. Assonance helps to catch the attention of the reader and it helps to memorize the lines of the poem easily. In the above phrase, the words 'fields,' and 'poppies' are the example of assonance.
