The imagery that Poe uses to help you hear, see, smell, and feel the sensations of being buried alive is like I could feel myself gasping for air as he described this scene to me. I could see myself in the middle of tons of dirt, smelling the dust. I could hear the dirt getting piled on top of me.
Personification
The ship has human-like characteristics. The sentence is talking as if the ship has the brains to decide it can sigh and hesitate.
You can remember by seeing that the word "person" is in "personification".

Answer:
I love going to the zoo with my dad. Many of the animals are cool and we like looking at animals especially lions. <u>because</u> (lions are big and strong and strong animals are scary) (Change : They are tough and ferocious, which makes them scary)<u> </u><u>in real life</u> but when they are in a cage it isn't so bad. <u>but</u> I would never want to be put in a cage because I would get sad. <u>so</u> (I don't know if the animals are happy or sad but) (change : Uncertain if the animals will feel happy or sad themselves) my dad (says)(change : said) that the animals at the zoo are very well taken care of and i shouldn't worry about them.

<u>The correct answer is A. What proof the tipster is able to provide.</u>
The reason why it's anonymous is probably because <em>the person providing the information doesn't feel comfortable providing their identity</em>. That's why we have so many tip lines that assure us we won't be asked for our names, information about where we live or even how we know what we know. All they care about is the information we provide and the accuracy of it.
Hence the correct answer can't be C or D. Just imagine what would happen to the tipster if they are quoted or exposed. They want the crime to stop but they don't want to be harmed for being the people talking about it.
In order to stop the crime or expose it, it is<u><em> necessary</em></u> for the reporter to have <em>concrete evidence</em> of it. Without proof, the reporter won't be able to check if the tip is true. His reputation is also undermined if what he publishes turns out to be fake, so proof is very important.
Answer B it's also incorrect because the <em>intention </em>of the tipster should be <em>irrelevant</em>. Also by stating why they want to talk, they'd be revealing who they are to the criminals (or at least give them an idea) and they wouldn't remain anonymous anymore.
