1- The correct answer is D.

The last words of lines 1 (mind) and 4 (kind) rhyme; and the last words of lines 2 (more) and 3 (poor) also rhyme.

2- The correct answer is A.

The word "Scritching" is trying to create an onomatopoeia for scratching.

3- The correct answer is B.

Alliteration is same sound at the beginning of several words that are close together.

In this case, the sound is the "t" in "tail to trunk."

4- The correct answer is D.

The poem is about the speed of the cat and how she cannot catch it.

5- The correct answer is C.

Since it is a very fast animal, the most likely to scamper would be a squirrel.
