Which sentence is the best example of personification? a. "watch out! " walter cried, waving his arms frantically. b. the pines shed their needles and seemed to shiver in the cold. c. in the 105-degree weather, the city became a vast microwave oven. d. the lazy cats lay like discarded laundry on the thick rug.

The correct answer is B. The pines shed their needles and seemed to shiver in the cold.

Explanation:

In general terms, personification occurs when human qualities or traits are assigned to non-humans. This means emotions, sensations, gestures, body parts, actions, etc. that are human are given to animals or objects usually to create a metaphor. According to this, the one that is an example of personification is "The pines shed their needles and seemed to shiver in the cold" because in this case the quality "shiver in the cold" has been given to the pines, even though these are not human and therefore they cannot "shive in the cold", although these words are used to express the movement of the pines due to the wind.

read this excerpt from “incidents in the life of a slave girl.”

i went about my evening work with trembling steps. mr. flint twice called from his chamber door to inquire why the house was not locked up. i replied that i had not done my work. "you have had time enough to do it," said he. "take care how you answer me! "

i shut all the windows, locked all the doors, and went up to the third story, to wait till midnight. how long those hours seemed, and how fervently i prayed that god would not forsake me in this hour of utmost need! i was about to risk everything on the throw of a die; and if i failed, o what would become of me and my poor children? they would be made to suffer for my fault.

at half past twelve i stole softly down stairs. i stopped on the second floor, thinking i heard a noise. i felt my way down into the parlor, and looked out of the window. the night was so intensely dark that i could see nothing. i raised the window very softly and jumped out. large drops of rain were falling, and the darkness bewildered me. i dropped on my knees, and breathed a short prayer to god for guidance and protection. i groped my way to the road, and rushed towards the town with almost lightning speed.
