Answer 1

Select the sentence that uses personification.

As it wound its way around the curvy track, the sleek new race car grinned at its driver.

this is bc, the car can't actually grin, that's a human characteristic do that is why it is personification. as personification means that it is being given human characteristics to make the reader understand more what the writer is talking is on about.

definition of personification

'the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something non-human, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form'

example:

'angry clouds marched across the sky'

^ Clouds can't really be angry and they can't march. it is only used to have an effect on the reader.

hope that helps :)
