Read the excerpt from "Safari Day in Kenya.” Hyenas slink before us, mottled bodies, eyes black ice Zebras bright as painted ponies, the babes brown-striped, not black! Which statement best describes how the author uses sound devices to create mood? The author uses onomatopoeia to create a disjointed mood. The author uses onomatopoeia to create a joyful mood. The author uses alliteration to create a playful mood. The author uses alliteration to create an angry mood.

Respuesta :

In my opinion, the correct answer is C. The author uses alliteration to create a playful mood. Alliteration is a sound device that is used when the author places the same consonants in nearby or adjacent words. In this case, we have "before us, mottled bodies, eyes black ice Zebras bright as painted ponies, the babes brown-striped, not black" (the repetition of B and P consonants).

Answer:

The answer is C) The author uses alliteration to create a playful mood.
