Answer 1

The correct answer is D. use of repeated words, phrases, or grammatical forms.

This is very common as it creates a natural flow. Poets often use parallelisms. An example of it would be Lady of Shalott by Lord Tennyson who repeats "she" at the beginning of every verse in the last stanza of part three of the poem.
