Answer 1

The best statement that compares the rhetorical devices used in the passages is:

**Ain’t I a Woman? employs a rhetorical question, while the Declaration of Sentiments uses anaphora.**

This statement accurately reflects the rhetorical devices commonly associated with these works. "Ain’t I a Woman?" by Sojourner Truth uses rhetorical questions to challenge the audience and provoke thought, while the "Declaration of Sentiments," particularly in its famous opening, employs anaphora through the repetition of "We hold these truths to be self-evident" to emphasize its arguments for women's rights.
