What is personification?

Personification is defined as a figure of speech in which a concept or object is given human characteristics and/or emotions, or is discussed as though it were a person. Personification in literature primarily serves to humanize inanimate objects for the reader. Personification gives things that lack complex human characteristics a deeper meaning.

Even though the "sun" cannot literally "play hide and seek," it is imitating a human behavior or an action that a person is capable of performing. Thus, personification is when an object behaves or appears to behave like a person.

Thus, the sun played hide and seek with the clouds is a personification. Hence option a is correct.

a. yours
b. you're
c. your

Answer:

C.)  Your


It is your, because if you go through the answers, replace them with the word, and does the sentence 'Don't worry; you will get yours turn.' make sense? No, try the next one then. You're means you are, so read the sentence saying you are replacing the blank. If it doesn't make sense check the next answer.
Also, your is a possessive adjective, and yours is a possessive pronoun.
the answer is c. your
