Which of these excerpts from the poems you read is an example of personification? a. so much depends / upon / a red wheel / barrow (williams, "the red wheelbarrow") b. he was speckled with barnacles, / fine rosettes of lime (bishop, "the fish") c. the work of hunters is another thing: / i have come after them and made repair (frost, "mending wall") d. i placed a jar in tennessee, / . . it made the slovenly wilderness / surround that hill (stevens, "the anecdote of the jar")

The correct answer is D, specifically the part which reads "It made the slovenly wilderness." Personification is the attribution of human characteristics to something that is non-human. The  word slovenly is defined as something that is messy, dirty, or careless and is usually used in reference to a person or their appearance. In this case, the author is referring to the wilderness as having the human-like quality of being slovenly.

hi,   i believe the outlines that were supposed to be showing at the sentences, are not. could you highlight them somehow?

martians or other types of aliens represent a unique fear as opposed to zombies. vampires and other types of monsters.   in most sci-fi stories, aliens come from other worlds and have different or more advanced technology.   abductions and experimentation on human bodies that involve these technologies, or the use of these technologies against human beings and the use of unknown "powers", are a type of fear that's different from that of other types of monsters.
