Answer: A) The world is just waiting for you to go enjoy it: Personification. B) Maybe Forrest Gump had it right about life: Allusion. C) Life is like a box of chocolates: Simile.
Explanation: personification is a figure of speech that consists in giving human characteristics to non human objects (or animals) (for example saying that the world is waiting). Allusion is a literary device that consists in making a brief reference to a person, an event (historical, political, cultural, etc), or a place (for example the reference to Forrest Gump). A simile is a figure of speech that consists in making a comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, this comparison is made using the words "like" and "as" (for example comparing life to a box of chocolates).
The correct answer would be the answer choice C) Life is like a box of chocolates. The reason for this is because a simile, in figurative language, is a way of comparing two objects using "like" or "as" such as "her smile is like my sunshine," or "he was big as a bull,". In answer choice C, the sentence compares "life" to a box of chocolates using the word like.
