The answer is : A : to link ideas and emphasize main points.

Repetition is a rethorical device used to add emphasis in writing and speech, by repeating the same words or phrases to make an idea clearer. Another purpose is to draw the attention of the readers to a certain idea or something that the writers or speakers choose as significant, important enough to be repeated.
