Answer:

Maybe either B. or C.

Explanation:

Simile- a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid (e.g., as brave as a lion, crazy like a fox).

Metaphor- a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.

Alliteration- the occurrence of the same letter or sound at the beginning of adjacent or closely connected words.

Personification- the attribution of a personal nature or human characteristics to something nonhuman, or the representation of an abstract quality in human form.
