Answer: D. Personification.

Explanation: personification is a figure of speech that consists in giving human characteristics to nonhuman objects. In the given lines from Plath's poem "Edge" we can see a clear example of personification, because he is saying that the feet (nonhuman objects) are saying "We have come so far, it is over" and as we know, speaking is a human characteristic, so the correct answer is option D.

Answer:

D). Personification.

Explanation:

Personification is demonstrated as the figure of speech that approaches or proposes humanly characteristics/attributes to objects or animals and abstract ideas or notions, etc. It functions to bring life to these inanimate objects in order to relate and understand it more effectively and comprehensively.

In Sylvia Plath's poem "Edge" employs 'personification' in the given lines:

"Feet seem to be saying:

We have come so far, it is over."

Here, the 'feet' have been personified which is reflected through the words 'saying', 'we have... far' to offer a voice(human attribute) to the 'feet' in order to propose a specific effect in the poem. Thus, <u>option D</u> would be the correct answer to this question.

Which element in the radio broadcast of The War of the Worlds helped
joja [24]

Answer:

Welles' creativity and imagination demonstrated his ability to reach thousands of listeners, and the extreme ease with which false news could be distributed.

Explanation:

In his narration Welles focused very well in all the details about how the Martians had begun their attack in New Jersey, and that other nearby cities, such as New York, were also suffering problems. The way of telling the story on the radio was incredible, since the well-known American imitated the retransmission of newsletters, testimonies of alleged witnesses and even, Welles allowed himself to imitate President Roosevelt in an imaginary message to the nation before the alleged attacks.
