Answer:

C. personification

Explanation:

Personification refers to the attribution of human qualities to something that is nonhuman. In the excerpt from "The Walrus and the Carpenter" the author Lewis Carroll personifies the sun and the moon, as a man and a woman respectively. Thus, the sun has the human trait to make the effort so that the sky shines, while the moon has the human feature of thinking that the sun is rude.
