Question

What sound device is used the most?

A.) Alliteration
B.) Blank verse
C.) Parallelism
D.) Hyperbole

Answer 1

C.) Parallelism

Parallelism is the use of successive verbal constructions which correspond in grammatical structure, sound, metre, meaning, etc.

The phrase "a time to..." is used almost thirty times. The answer would be C.

Answer 2

A.) Alliteration

Step-by-step explanation:

The most frequently used literary device in this chapter would have to be parallelism, but parallelism is not a sound device.

B, C, and D are not sound devices. Only A is a sound device, and it is used a lot in this chapter.

Alliteration is the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. We have here, mostly, the alliterations with t : a time to ...; there are alliterations

with pl - a time to plant, a time to pluck

with b - a time to be born, etc.
