Yes you are correct on this one. The answer is C. Symbolism.
Symbolism is a  <span>symbolic meaning attributed to natural objects or facts.
For example: </span>
<span>"the old-fashioned symbolism of flowers"</span>

Answer:

Symbolism

Explanation:

Symbolism, as a figurative language, invests objects, traits, colors, animals, etc. with a symbolic meaning that is different from their actual form. In the excerpt, the black box aims to represent another concept, perhaps, it represents how things or beings become old, weary or less attractive with the passage of time.

The other options are incorrect because the passage does not make any comparison (metaphor or simile), and there are no objects nor animals with human attributes (personification).

Well i'm sorry i cant answer this cause i think it needs to come from your knowledge not any one else's. Cause once you write what somebody else put down you'll be plagerizing. Then you want us to write 750 to 2,500 words no. Im sorry i'm not doing that.

Plagerizing is just for the writing part. Not math,or science or non of that.
