Answer: B. Personification.
In the line "I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear", Whitman is personifying America as a country. People can sing, but America is non-human. Giving human traits to non-human entities, inanimate objects, or phenomena is a figurative language technique called personification.
Explanation:
The figure of speech in Walt Whitman's line 'I hear America singing, the varied carols I hear' is Personification, where America is attributed with the human capability of singing.
The figure of speech used in the given line from Walt Whitman's poem 'I Hear America Singing' is Personification. Personification is a figure of speech where human qualities are given to animals, objects or ideas. In this case, Whitman is giving a human quality, singing, to the abstract concept of America. This can be thought of as Whitman hearing the country itself sing through the voices and sounds of its people.

The Body In Old Age
It travels in ways unenvisaged
Not vigorously along corridors
or from task to task but
by a kind of untrammeled liberty:
Let things fall as they will
might be its mute speech.
As whiskers and hang nails,parts
growing to absurd lengths and
inconsiderate boldness.Is this
not a kind of exploring?Knowing
it need not hold itself in
and cannot.Become one
with whatever it can claim:falling
ever,clutching at straws
all acts that seem,for once,boundary-less.
