The correct answer is C) assonance.

The assonance is a repetition in the sounds of words. This resemblance is mainly found in vowel sounds but it can also be perceived in consonants (also known as consonance). In the example given, the three words are spelt with EA and pronounced with a long i sound /i:/. The repetition of that sound is an assonance.
