Answer 1

1. Odd how a lock of blond hair on a doll can notch the clock of memory.

Sound /o/ has been repeated.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assonance is simply the repetition of vowel sounds. In the above sentence, sound /o/( I can't find the exact symbol but it looks like a mirrored 'a') has been repeated ib odd, lock, blond, doll,notch, clock and on

Answer 2

number 3: Fireworks pop, sizzle, and swish above the buzz of the numberless crowd.

Step-by-step explanation:

sizzle and swish both contain the /ɪ/ sound, so it's an assonance.

plus both words in the same line above and buzz contain the sama /ʌ/ sound, which is another assonance.

I think the first one does not contain any and the third, we don't consider repeated words as example of assonance.
