Which of Dee's actions in "Everyday Use" by Alice Walker is in line with the following description of her character?
Ksivusya [100]
In my opinion, the correct answer is A. <span>changing her name. As described by her mother, Dee has always been committed to fads, even when it comes to something as trivial as fashion. So, when she changes her name, she interprets it as an act of going back to her African roots.

The writer revised this sentence to include personification. Which revised sentence shows an example of personification?
AnnyKZ [126]

The revised sentence that shows an example of personification is "The river laughed as it danced over the pebbles," as stated in option D and explained below.

<h3>What is personification?</h3>

Personification is a figure of speech that gives human life, actions, and even feelings to inanimate objects. It is commonly used in literature as way to make descriptions more vivid and colorful.

All options presented in the question contains figures of speech, but the only one that contains personification is option D, "The river laughed as it danced over the pebbles." As we know, a river cannot really laugh and dance; these are typically human actions.

The author, however, choose to say that the river is dancing and laughing as way to describe the way the water moves over the pebbles and the sound it makes as it rolls down.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option D as the correct answer.
