Answer:

In "if" the title of Kipling's poem is an example of repetition because that same word is repeated throughout the poem. Repetition is when a word or phrase is repeated several times throughout the same text.

Answer:

The title of the poem "If" begins many of the lines. This shows the importance of trying to follow the speaker's advice: if the son can do all of these things, says the speaker, he will be a man. Repeating "if" also helps the poet stress that nothing is certain in the world.

Step-by-step explanation:

I got it correct. Hope it helps :D
