What sound device is used in the following excerpt from "how the animals lost their tails and got them back traveling from philadelphia to medicine hat" by carl sandburg?

when there was a fight and a snag and a wrangle between two families living next door neighbors to each other and this old flongboo was called in to umpire and to say which family was right and which family was wrong, which family started it and which family ought to stop it, he used to say, “the best umpire is the one who knows just how far to go and how far not to go.”

repetition
alliteration
rhyme
consonance

The correct answer is A. Repetition

Explanation:

In writing, there are different sound techniques or devices that can be used by the writer to emphasize a certain idea or provide the text an aesthetic sense this includes alliteration in which the initial sound of words is repeated; rhyme in which the last same sound at the end of words or verses is repeated; consonance in which sounds from consonants is repeated and repetition in which one or more complete words or phrases are repeated. In the case of the excerpt presented, a sound device is used as words such as "family" and "which" are repeated multiple time, this also implies the specific sound device used is repetition as the recurrence of sounds occurs in complete words rather than on syllables at then of the beginning of words.
