Explanation:

A thesaurus provides synonyms to replace repeated words. Caitlyn's sentences overuse "big" and "fat". Option b is incorrect because sentences start with "Angelo", "He", and "The", not the same word. Option c is less direct; the core issue is clear repetition, not just lack of creativity.

Answer:

a. The sentences repeat the same words
