Question 1 • GA-GSE English Language Arts 9
Excerpt 1 repeats the beginning “t” sound in “tale,” “terror,” “turbulency,” and “tells,” which is alliteration. In excerpt 2, “moaning” and “groaning” imitate the sounds of the bells, making them examples of onomatopoeia. So excerpt 1 uses alliteration, while excerpt 2 uses onomatopoeia.
