Answer and Explanation:
"The Skin I'm In" is a story about racism, prejudice, bulling, insecurity, white supremacy, impunity, self-esteem, support, sense of belonging and self-expression. The author uses Maleeka's life and all the problems related to it and its appearance to portray such important themes that are more present in reality than what we imagine.
In relation to these themes, I do not believe that the author should modify the end of the story, or even change the end of the characters. In order to achieve the objectives of the narrative and present all these themes in a realistic way, it is necessary that each character has the ending that he had. Especially Maleeka, who presents with her mistakes, embraces her own personality and speaks the truth about the things that are happening to her, without protecting anyone out of fear or the need for friendship.
The end of each character represents the end that each archetype they represent must be in real life, so the story is identifiable and personal for all those who read it.

Answer: A) personification: “mask thy monstrous visage.
Explanation: personification is a figure of speech that consists in giving human characteristics to nonhuman objects. Similes and metaphors are comparisons between elements that aren't obviously related (metaphors are direct comparison while similes use the words "like" or "as"). In the given excerpt we can see an example of personification in the line "to mask thy monstrous visage" (human action) this is referring to the cavern (nonhuman object).
