An example of personification is:

I placed a jar in Tennessee, / . . . It made the slovenly wilderness / Surround that hill (Stevens, "The Anecdote of the Jar") 

The correct option is A.

Personification is the representation of things in human qualities or nature in abstract terms.

In the above lines from the poem "The Anecdote of the Jar" by Wallace Stevens the jar has been personified as a symbol of technology and humanity and Tennessee is a symbol of nature and wilderness. The poem is about the struggles and hardships which a human undergoes to overcome the wilderness. The human-made creation like jar restricts the intensity of the wilderness as humans control nature.
