The question asks to identify which word rhymes with "stole". Rhyming words are words that have the same ending sound. To determine the correct option, we need to pronounce each given word and compare its ending sound with that of "stole".
Based on the phonetic analysis, "pole" is the only word that rhymes with "stole".
Correct Option: A) Pole — The word "pole" has the same ending sound /oʊl/ as "stole" /stoʊl/. Both words share the long 'o' sound followed by an 'l' sound.
The question asks to identify the figure of speech used in the given phrase. We need to analyze the meaning and literary device employed in "My foe outstretched beneath the tree" and compare it with the definitions of the options provided.
B) Hyperbole — The phrase "My foe outstretched beneath the tree" uses hyperbole. While it literally means the foe is lying down, in a poetic or narrative context, especially when referring to a defeated enemy, "outstretched" can be an exaggeration to emphasize the completeness of their defeat or death, making the victory seem more dramatic or absolute. It's a way of amplifying the impact of the foe's state.
The question asks to identify the figure of speech used in the given lines. We need to analyze the characteristics of each option and see which one best fits the provided text.
D) Alliteration — Alliteration is the repetition of the same initial consonant sound in words that are close together. In the phrase "And I sunned it with smiles," the 's' sound is repeated at the beginning of "sunned" and "smiles." Similarly, in "And with soft deceitful wiles," the 's' sound is repeated in "soft" and "wiles" (though 'w' is also present), making alliteration the most fitting figure of speech.
To determine the rhyming scheme, we need to identify the end sounds of each line in the given phrase. We will assign a letter (starting with 'A') to each unique end sound. If a line's end sound matches a previous line's end sound, it receives the same letter.
A) AABB is the correct rhyming scheme as determined by the end sounds of the lines: stole (A), pole (A), see (B), tree (B).

| List I | List II |
| a) Night & morning with my tear | 1.) Symbolism |

a-2,b-1,c-4,d-3
a-1,b-2,c-4,d-3

The question asks us to match literary devices with their corresponding examples. We need to analyze each phrase and determine which literary device it best represents: Symbolism, Hyperbole, Imagery, or Personification.
B) a-2,b-1,c-4,d-3 is the correct match based on our analysis.
The question asks to identify the literary devices present in the given line: "I was angry with my friend; I told my wrath, my wrath did end." We need to analyze each option (Repetition, Hyperbole, Metaphor, Alliteration) against the provided line.
B) i) & iv) is correct because the line clearly contains both Repetition ("my wrath, my wrath") and Alliteration (the 'w' sound in "my wrath, my wrath").
