I’m taking a guess but I would say, weak: off topic
Answer:
Even though this question is missing the options, after analyzing the revision we can safely say it was made for <u>conciseness</u>.
Explanation:
Conciseness can be simply defined as saying a lot in just a few words. Notice how the original paragraph is much longer than the revised one. The writer gave much more information than what was truly necessary. Details such as "and that new procedures need to be initiated" and "who was sympathetic" are superfluous. The first one adds nothing of value. If the procedures are inadequate, it is quite obvious that new ones need to be initiated. Readers could infer that. The second one is permeated with subjectivity, not only making the paragraph longer, but also stating an opinion that in uncalled for in this context. By eliminating the extra words, the writer made the paragraph concise, using fewer words to express the necessary.

Answer: A) Personification</h3>
Explanation:
The winter weather isn't a person, but the author is making it seem like the cold wind is from Jack Frost's breath. So the author is making the wind or just cold weather in general seem like a person of sorts, or part of a person's traits. Personification is the act of turning any inanimate object or non-human thing to have human traits. Hence the "person" in "personification".
Other examples of personification are sentences like:
- The tree danced in the wind
- The river swallowed more ground as the water rose more rapidly
- Time flies when you're having fun
- The ocean lashed angrily at the beach.
I'm sure you can probably come up with more creative examples or look them up elsewhere to get a better grasp on how personification works.
