Read the final lines of "One True Friend," by Etta-May Spenser. Answer the question that follows: Though I'd never confide all my feelings inside, To everyone I ever knew. You are my one true friend and I swear till the end: I'll never keep secrets from you. The author uses the same poetic device in line 1 and line 3. Which choice best explains the device she repeats and the reason she does so?  

 
  A.She uses alliteration to create a lounge twister to make a serious topic more playful.

  B.She uses assonance to slow down the rhythm so the reader lingers on every word.

   C .She uses consonance so the words flow together as one and create a unified rhythm.

    D. She uses internal rhyme to quicken the pace and create a sense of anticipation.
