Answer 1

Here are the matches for each example with the correct rhetorical technique:

• Allusion: "What's in a name?" (a reference to Shakespeare's work)
• Anaphora: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of foolishness." (repetition of "it was")
• Metaphor: "Cookies are my kryptonite." (comparing cookies to kryptonite, suggesting they are a weakness)
• Rhetorical question: "The frost is glittering crystals on the trees." (this sentence does not fit as a rhetorical question; a clearer rhetorical question example might be, "Isn't it beautiful?")

Note: The last example provided ("The frost is glittering crystals on the trees.") is not a rhetorical question—it would be more accurately described as a metaphorical description. If you were looking for a fitting rhetorical question, please provide another example.
