Which lines from the poem above illustrate personification?a. “April/Comes like an idiot, babbling and strewing flowers.”
b. “Life in itself/Is nothing/An empty cup, a flight of uncarpeted stairs.”
c. “The smell of the earth is good./It is apparent that there is no death.”
d. “The sun is hot on my neck as I observe/The spikes of the crocus.”

Answers

Answer:

The answer is A. “April/Comes like an idiot, babbling and strewing flowers.”

Explanation:

Personification in poetry means to "humanize" not human things. For instance, the answer here is A, because April is a "thing" a month, it doesn't come like an idiot (a person is an idiot) it doesn't babble (a person-baby babbles) and it doesn't strew (people strew).

The rest of the options are simply being described, if you see, they're not being "humanized" in any way.

The correct answer is a. Personification means giving an inanimate object, human characteristics. April is described as babbling and strewing flowers. Similar to a human, but is not actually a person.
