Answer:
The rhythm and word choice in these three lines from Levertov's "Overheard over S.E. Asia" open the poem with a flat tone.
Explanation:
This is one of many anti-Vietnam poems Levertov wrote. The general tone at the beginning of these lines show a quiet sensation that could be considered flat, as people see the white phosphorus coming down as snow, later as the poem continues the tone changes in a very different direction, it goes from a flat presentation to a strong and varied poem.

<em>Personification</em>
Explanation:
<em>Personification</em> is a figure of speech where we give human characteristics to inanimate objects.
In the given example we have Butterkist which is a famous British company that produces, among other food, biscuits. The sentence gives us an impression like Butterkist is a real person, a cook, who cooks those biscuits, so in a way, we <em>gave life</em> to the company and that represents personification.
Answer:
I believe the correct answer is a. "caverns" and "man".
Explanation:
Assonance is the figure of speech which represents the repetition of vowels in the nearby words in the line. With that in mind, the words from these lines of “Kubla Khan”, Samuel Taylor Coleridge uses words “caverns” and “man” to create assonance (both words repeat the sound “e”).
This is a physical description as it <em>fully depicts the place</em> that the character is passing by. For instance, he/she identifies meters ("about a hundred yards") and miles ("that was five miles wide".) He/she also describes the place: "a shallow lake," "full of rushes," "and ducks (...) in the season," "There was a slough or a creek leading out of it." This is a <em>setting</em> full <em>of physical details</em>.
