The statement that best describes the use of sound devices in the lines is the one that reads as follows: "Excerpt 1 contains alliteration, and excerpt 2 contains onomatopeia".

Alliteration is the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words. In the first example, the sound /t/ is repeated in "turbulency tells". On the other hand, onomatopeia is the formation of a word from a sound associated with what is named. In the second example, there are "moaning" and "groaning", both verbs relating to sounds and being formed from the sound they are associated with.

krok68 [10]
I would say the correct answer is C. <span>“I guess being colored doesn’t make me not like / the same things other folks like who are other races.” In my opinion, this is the most important line about race because it expresses Hughes' view that being colored doesn't prevent us from having a bond with people of other races. However, it still means being different - he mentions it at the beginning of the line, as a distinct feature that is the basis of white people's prejudices toward him and other colored people.</span>

Answer:

Fourth Option <em>“A perfect taste made possible by the most brutal labor.”</em>

Explanation:

Author's main purpose of this excerpt is about difficulties, problems and labor involved with the production of sugar. He also points out that sugar is sweeter than honey.

First, second and third options are not correct because they support only one part of the author's main purpose i.e. either difficulty or taste.
