Down from the hills like an arrow we fly, Or a comet that whizzes along through the sky; Down from the hills! Oh, isn't it grand! Clasping your best winter girl by the hand, Toboggan! Toboggan! Toboggan! Ben King's Verse, ed. Nixon Waterman, (Chicago: Forbes, 1899): 1 from "Toboggan" What is the most likely purpose of the repetition of "Toboggan!"? A. It emphasizes a feeling of excitement. B. It establishes the setting of the poem. C. It reminds the reader what the poem is about. D. It shows how many toboggans are going down the hill.

A. It emphasizes a feeling of excitement.

Explanation:

In this stanza of the poem, Toboggan was used repeatedly to emphasize excitement. The poet described their descent from the hills which he compared to a comet that whizzes along the sky. He explains that the feeling was a grand one.

As he grasped the best winter girl by the hand, probably through their descent the poet used the exclamation, Toboggan! Toboggan! Toboggan! This is a feeling of excitement.
