Answer:

B. The furious train raced along the track, determined as ever.

Step-by-step explanation:

The other options are either true observations or exaggerated comparisons

And seeing as trains are not subject to emotions (fury and determination), B is the best fit.

Answer: B. The furious train raced along the track, determined as ever.

Step-by-step explanation:

Personification is a literary device that assigns non human things human characteristics. Fury is a human emotion that trains, a non-human thing, cannot have, which is why it is personification.
