← Language & CommunicationA political candidate employs the scheme of anaphora during a speech to emphasize key policy points. Which consequence follows?
A)Diminished audience cognitive processing fluency
B)Increased rhetorical impact through repetition✓
C)Decreased engagement due to predictability
D)Elevated risk of semantic ambiguity errors
💡 Explanation
The use of anaphora, a rhetorical scheme involving repetition, enhances rhetorical impact by creating a sense of rhythm and emphasis. Because the repeated phrase becomes highly salient, the audience is more likely to remember the associated ideas. Therefore, impact increases, rather than predictability leading to disengagement.
