Answer: um Personification is the attribution to human qualities or feelings to things that are not human.

In this excerpt, the personification is present when the author writes: With impatient fingers she began all over again. Fingers can feel impatient because they part of the human body and they do not have emotions of any kind, therefore they can not feel impatient. That is a human condition.

Read the excerpts from “Take the Tortillas Out of Your Poetry” and “Speaking Arabic.”
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

B.) They employ figurative language.

Explanation:

Note, the word figurative language basically refers to the used of words to communicate in a way that what is said or written does not follow a regular (literal; simple) meaning rather is to be understood in a more complex or unique (symbolic) way.

In the first excerpt, the use of the phrase <em>"he took the tortillas out of his poetry"</em> is to be understood symbolically. Similarly, in the second excerpt, the expression <em>"the tall American trees were dangling their thick branches right down over his head," </em>the reader observes a personification of the object, 'tree', this is a good example where figurative language can be observed.
