Which phrase from the example contains figurative language?

D. The sun glared down angrily.

Figurative language is the use of symbolic descriptions to convey a message in a striking way.

Sentence D contains an example of personification, a type of figurative language in which an inanimate object ("the sun") is given qualities that are human ("glared down angrily") creating an image with a convincing effect.
