Personification is adding human characteristics to a non-human object.  (D. "The landscape listens, shadows - hold their breath.")  The landscape listening as if it has ears, and shadows holding their breath are things a living thing would do, so (D) is the best answer.

You should not use the authors' last names in the citation if the authors' names appear in your quote's signal phrase.
mariarad [96]

Answer:

True or False -  You should not use the authors’ last names in the citation if the authors’ names appear in the text.

Answer: True

Explanation below:

Explanation:

When it comes to English Grammar, a signal phrase is a type of phrase sentence or clause that often introduces a quotation, paraphrase, or summary. This type of phrase contains a verb together with the name of the person that is being quoted.  

It alerts the reader that something taken from an entirely different source is about to be used.  

Below is an example:

Daniel testified that he was not in the house when his neighbor’s dog died (13).

The author’s name is included and the page number in parenthesis.

So when the author’s name does not appear in the text, you should not use the author’s last names in the citation.

"The earth does not belong to man, man belongs ot the earth. All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. man did
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

The earth is a vast ecosystem that was created by natural forces. Through mankind's touch this has drastically changed. A sort of butterfly effect occurs whenever man intervenes with nature. For example, building a dam stops water flow, dries up the river bed, and forces native animals to relocate or die. Everything that mankind has done to the earth hurts the natural course of how nature grows and flows. By doing this the earth has become poisoned, and therefore mankind is poisoning his home and himself.

Its six sentences but here you go. Modify to how it best suits you.
