personification in this passage?

stressful the situation really is.

whole nation to describe the march.

ground to evoke shame and loss.

show when the march happened.

Answer 1

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first option is an obvious tell, not a form of figurative language. Option B is more of a simile or a metaphor, comparing two things to show that they are the same or similar. The last option is simply a fact. Option C mentions two objects that are not living, and personification is defined as a type of metaphor in which a nonliving or nonhuman thing is given human characteristics or abilities.
