    This is homework? There's rule not to do someone's homework for them.

    Make your question concrete with real words. That may help you solve it.

    Hello Tracy

    Wikipedia : in rhetoric, a rhetorical device or resource of language is a technique that an author or speaker uses to evoke an emotional response in the audience (the reader(s) or listener(s)). These emotional responses are central to the meaning of the work or speech, and should also get the audience's attention.

    So select whatever you FEEL to suit that description best !

    Success!

    :)
