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.

I think the cane represents C. HIS SELF-CONSCIOUS DISPLAYS OF AUTHORITY.

Notice that when people using canes are in public, people around them make it a point to make sure that they get out of the way to ensure that the person using a cane will not be hindered. People are more quick to react or help if they find that the person in need is using a cane or is in a wheelchair. 

Majority of people using canes are those who are elderly, thus gaining immediate respect and subservience from others.
