Hey there!


The third option or C seems like the best choice.

Answer:

The correct answer is C: A direct address to an inanimate object or deceased person as if it could respond.

Explanation:

The reason is that, unlike the use of apostrophes in grammatical terms, in literature, the use of an apostrophe, or when a character speaks using an apostrophe, means that either the character, or author, are speaking to an inanimate object, or referring to someone who is dead, as if these things could talk back, or understand, what is being said. This is a literary technique, not the grammatical punctuation mark, which usually initiates with such expressions as "Oh".
