C. Personification
At the end of these lines it says that the "taught gut vibrating hummed and sang a swallow's note". The cord is described as humming and singing. These are human qualities. Personification is giving a non-human thing human-like traits. A simile is a comparison of two things using like or as. There is no like or as in this at all so it is not correct. A metaphor is a comparison of two things without using like or as. 

C. the suitors

Them is a direct object. It is receiving whatever is being given. From the beginning of the sentence, we know that Penelope and her maids are the ones doing the actions of "walked" and "gave". This means they cannot be also receiving whatever is being given so the answer must be the suitors.

<span>It was on such an island in the third summer of its yellow green that we built our watch fire. Not in the thicket of dancing willow wands, but on the level terrace of fine sand which has been added that spring a little new bit of world beautifully ridged with ripple marks and strewn with the tiny skeletons of turtles and fish all as white and dry as if they had been expertly cured. We had been careful not to mar the freshness of the place although we often swam to it on summer evenings and lay on the sand to rest.</span>

Brutus is often considered a tragic hero, or in other words a character who makes a judgment error that inevitably leads to his/
sveticcg [70]

Brutus is a tragic hero as his judgement of error in killing Caesar leads to his downfall but he is an inherently good man.

Explanation:

Brutus is an enigmatic character in the play as he joins the conspiracy and drags the dagger into the heart of Caesar yet he has love for him and torments himself for doing it.

He does not kill Caesar eventually because he hates him, he mentions repeatedly that he likes him and thinks of him as a great man and as a friend .

He does so because he thinks this is what will be good for Rome and as a patriot it is his responsibility to do this for the nation.

He torments himself for the act and realizes eventually that it has done more harm than good, making him die in the end as his fall is tragic and follows the classical principles.
