question 4
\the animal i am\ uses both a sound device and figurative language. what are they? select both

a onomatopoeia
b metaphor
c repetition
d personification

Explanation:

1. For the sound device: Repetition (option c) involves repeating words or phrases for effect. In "The animal I am", there's no onomatopoeia (which imitates sounds), so repetition is the sound device here.
2. For figurative language: Personification (option d) gives human - like qualities to non - human things, but "The animal I am" is more about metaphor? Wait, no. Wait, "The animal I am" uses metaphor? No, wait, personification? Wait, no. Wait, "The animal I am" – if we consider "I am" as a human - like assertion by an animal (but actually, the correct approach: Repetition (c) is a sound device (repeating? Wait, no, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's re - evaluate. "The animal I am" – the sound device: repetition? No, maybe the correct answers are c (repetition) and d (personification)? Wait, no. Wait, figurative language: personification is giving human traits to non - humans. If the speaker is an animal saying "I am", that's personifying the animal (giving it human - like self - assertion). And repetition: is there repetition? Wait, maybe the original phrase has repetition? Wait, the question is about "The animal I am" – maybe the sound device is repetition (c) and figurative language is personification (d). Or maybe metaphor? Wait, no. Let's think again. Onomatopoeia (a) is out as it's not imitating sound. Metaphor (b) is a comparison without "like" or "as". Personification (d) is giving human qualities. Repetition (c) is repeating words. So "The animal I am" – if the animal is speaking (personification, d) and maybe repetition (c) in the phrase structure? So the correct options are c. repetition and d. personification? Wait, no, maybe I messed up. Wait, the correct answers should be c (repetition, sound device) and d (personification, figurative language). Or maybe b and c? No, let's check again.

Wait, let's re - analyze:

Sound device options: onomatopoeia (a) – no, repetition (c) – yes, as a sound device (repeating words or phrases for rhythm/emphasis).

Figurative language: personification (d) – giving human qualities (the animal is speaking as a human would, saying "I am"), or metaphor (b) – comparing the self to an animal? Wait, "The animal I am" – if the speaker is a human saying "I am an animal", that's metaphor. But if the speaker is an animal, it's personification. The question says "The animal I am" – so the animal is the speaker, using "I am" (human - like language), so personification (d). And repetition: is there repetition? Maybe the phrase has repetition in structure. So the two correct options are c. repetition (sound device) and d. personification (figurative language).

Answer:

c. repetition, d. personification
