Not 100% sure, but in my opinion I would say B. Personification.

The correct answer would be option B: "Personification".

Personification is when human atributes or characteristics are applied to animal or non-living things. For example, in the poem, the author says that the hawk, "accused him" and that he "complained", both being actions that an animal (such as a hawk) cannot literally do.

In the poem, the lines shown do not rhyme phonetically or visually and do not compare one trait to another (emphasizing it) therefore, options A, C and D are incorrect.

Which word correctly completes the sentence? For __________ are you baking those cookies? A. who B. whom
olasank [31]

I also agree that the answer is B: whom

in this sentence you are using the  preposition + whom grammar structure. Whom is considered an object pronoun and is used when asking who will receive the action, which in this case, I believe is, baking those cookies. Hopefully  this makes sense and good luck.
