To find the line that contains an example of onomatopoeia, we need to focus on words that imitate or represent the sound they describe. Onomatopoeia refers to words that sound like the noise they are describing. Now, let's analyze each line:
A. "The Sea murmurs sleepily in the cool morning dawn." - This line does not have onomatopoeia. The word "murmurs" describes a quiet, gentle sound, but it does not imitate the actual sound.
B. "Like glittering fish at the water's edge." - This line does not have onomatopoeia either. It compares fish to something else but does not imitate a specific sound.
C. "Surfers in wetsuits paddle through low waves." - This line does not have onomatopoeia. It describes surfers paddling through waves without imitating any sounds.
D. "Searching for shells and other treasures." - This line also does not have onomatopoeia. It describes an action, but it doesn't imitate a sound.
By analyzing each line, we determined that option A, "The Sea murmurs sleepily in the cool morning dawn," does not contain onomatopoeia.
