Answer 2

Answer: A) alliteration and C) personification.

Step-by-step explanation: alliteration is a literary device that consists in the repetition of the beginning sound of consecutive words or words that are close to each other. Personification is a figure of speech that consists in giving human characteristics to non human objects (or animals). In the given excerpt from "It's This Way" we can see an example of alliteration in the words "hands hungry" and an example of personification because the hands (non human object) are hungry (human characteristic).
