Question

Read the poem.

Answer 1

Hello!

Personification happens when you assign the qualities of a person to something that isn't human or that isn't even alive.  On the other hand, methapor is saying one thing when you really want to say other one: is a figure of speech that describes an object or action in a way that isn't literally true.

Correct answers are:

It creates the impression that the world of nature is alive with interactions

It suggests to readers that the moon, unlike the grass, is not moving.

Hope this helps

Answer 2

1- The answer to question 1 is: " it creates the impression that the world of nature is alive with interactions." The grass does not dance , in fact the wind makes it move. In the poem, the grass dances to the tunes the wind plays. The interaction is here. The wind does not play music ; it makes some sound while the air moves, though. This dance between the grass and the wind is what creates the impression the world of nature is alive.

2- The answer to question 2 is: " It helps readers to better imagine the motionlessness of the moon in contrast to the movement of the dune grass." " But the moon above is a statue." The use of "but" shows the contrast between the movement of the grass and the motionlessness of the moon. Besides, a statue is a motionless object and silent.
