Which statement reflects the importance of alliterative verse in an epic a. it makes characters seem larger than life b. it makes the epic more professional c. it hinders the reader's speed d. it makes the poem easy to memorize

I would contend that the right answer is the D) It makes the poem easy to memorize.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that since many epic poems were meant to be retold orally, their authors incorporated into them poetic devices such as alliteration, which facilitated that endeavor—this was true particularly of Old English and Old German poetry, among others, as exemplified by the poem Beowulf. Alliteration (from the Latin littĕra, "letter") is the repetition of initial consonant sounds in words that are close together in a poem. The alliterative verse replaces other devices that form the poem's metrical structure, such as the rhyme.      

the correct order is:

you're your own worst enemy:

they're going to say what they say, but

their opinions aren't holding you

back. it's your self-defeatist

attitude that's keeping your work

from getting its due.
