Hi,
The answer should be ‘thesaurus’.
Answer:
The room was dark musty and the general aura of the room felt tragic. There was nobody in there. Just a man. One man, Muttering to himself nonsense. He seemed lost, just sitting there. There were strange assortments of unpleasant dolls and toys along with broken ritualistic things piled in a dirty old garbage can in the corner of the room. It was hard to see it. Yet so noticable. The mans eyes were sunken in and his mutterings told me he was in a dark place he couldn't get his mind out of. He looked up at me and his seemed to be begging me never to end up like him and to help him. I looked in the uncomfortable room once and decided I would ignore him. I probably should have helped the old man, but I didn't. I guess I was being ignorant...

Answer:
After being tagged by Angela, Ryan freezes. He is surprised and a bit scared.
Explanation:
"Tag--I'm It!" is a story by W.M. Akers
. Ryan is a boy who pretends to be a commentator while the other kids play tag on the playground. The truth is that Ryan would rather be playing with the others, but the kids do not want him to play. They never chase him nor run from him. So, he found his own way of participating, which is by narrating the game.
<u>However, this time there is new girl playing. Angela does not know the other kids usually leave Ryan out. She sees him narrating the game, interrupts him, and tags him. Ryan freezes, though. He does not know what to do now that he is finally "it" after such a long time of not playing. He wonders if the other kids will actually play with him this time:</u>
<em>Ryan froze. He hadn't been 'It' for a long time. He didn't know what to do. The rest of the players stopped, too, and stared at him. If he moved, would they move too? Or would they stand there, waiting for him to quit embarrassing himself and get off the playground?
</em>
In the end, he chases Angela and ends up having a lot of fun.
Personification, Walt Whitman is personifying the land that is America and giving it the qualities of a person, in saying that it is singing. Therefore the figure of speech used is personification.
