Answer:

B. "the sound of steel on stones"

Step-by-step explanation:

Alliteration is the repetition of sounds at the start of words in a sentence. "Sound, "steel", and "stones" all start with the letter "S".

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

As there is a repeat in the beggining letter at the front of most words.

A can not be correct because it resembles onomatopoeia.
