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.

Answer:

It is trying to ask "What dominant (biggest or strongest) trait is causing more problems."

A dominant trait is the trait that is a big part of who you are and affects your life heavily.

So think of the most dominant trait the main character has, and reflect on how much it affects their life and/or makes it hard for them.

I hope this helps.
