Answer:

D- personification; snow reaches

Explanation:

Personification is the figure of speech that allows a writer to provide inanimate objects and animals with characteristics and abilities that are unique, or strongly related, to human beings.

An example of this can be seen in the passage shown in the question above, because we can read the phrase "It reaches to the Fence." This phrase is being spoken in relation to the snow, stating that "the snow reaches". The word "reaches" is strongly linked to the human ability to reach a certain place, which means that when the author attributed this word to snow, he used the figure of speech called personification.
