Fiona fretted and paced, and feared for the future. This line is the best example of alliteration because of the repeated "f" sound in "fretted," "paced," and "feared." It's like Fiona's fears are dancing with the "f" sound!
The best example of alliteration among the given options is:
"Tanya climbed each rung of the corporate ladder, while those around her grew anxious and madder."
To identify alliteration, we need to look for the repetition of consonant sounds at the beginning of words that are close together. In this line, we have the repetition of the "c" and "r" sounds in "climbed," "rung," and "corporate." This repetition of consonant sounds creates a pleasing rhythm and emphasizes the connection between the words. Thus, this line demonstrates the use of alliteration effectively.
