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.

Dear Bobett,

 

I saw and ordered your, “Out of this World Bob ZA Alien” dolls online a few days ago.  I received them in the mail today.  I noticed it was supposed to come with seven unique aliens.  However, it came with seven ThingamaBOBs instead.  

 

Can you please send me the other dolls in the set (Bob, Bobster, Bobbie, Bobetta, RoBOBert, and Bobcat)?  If you want, I can send the extra six ThingamaBOB dolls back.

 

Thank you for taking care of this.  I know I will enjoy the complete Bob family!

 

Best Regards,
