Richard Connell uses personification often in his short story "The Most Dangerous Game." Which line from this excerpt is an example of personification?I'll give him a trail to follow," muttered Rainsford, and he struck off from the rude path he had been following into the trackless wilderness. He executed a series of intricate loops; he doubled on his trail again and again, recalling all the lore of the fox hunt, and all the dodges of the fox. Night found him leg-weary, with hands and face lashed by the branches, on a thickly wooded ridge. He knew it would be insane to blunder on through the dark, even if he had the strength. His need for rest was imperative and he thought, "I have played the fox, now I must play the cat of the fable." A big tree with a thick trunk and outspread branches was near by, and, taking care to leave not the slightest mark, he climbed up into the crotch, and, stretching out on one of the broad limbs, after a fashion, rested. Rest brought him new confidence and almost a feeling of security. Even so zealous a hunter as General Zaroff could not trace him there, he told himself; only the devil himself could follow that complicated trail through the jungle after dark. But perhaps the general was a devil--An apprehensive night crawled slowly by like a wounded snake and sleep did not visit Rainsford, although the silence of a dead world was on the jungle. Toward morning when a dingy gray was varnishing the sky, the cry of some startled bird focused Rainsford's attention in that direction.Something was coming through the bush, coming slowly, carefully, coming by the same winding way Rainsford had come. He flattened himself down on the limb and, through a screen of leaves almost as thick as tapestry, he watched. . . . That which was approaching was a man.It was General Zaroff. He made his way along with his eyes fixed in utmost concentration on the ground before him. He paused, almost beneath the tree, dropped to his knees and studied the ground. Rainsford's impulse was to hurl himself down like a panther, but he saw that the general's right hand held something metallic--a small automatic pistol.

Which sentence does not contain any errors in comma usage? A. The puffy cloud looks like a giant, white rabbit. B. This is the cleanest, and most dazzling city I've ever visited. C. The colder, lighter meal will taste great on this hot day. D. This scary thrilling and wild roller coaster is not for everyone.

Answers

Ok lets eliminate the possible choices.

 A.) You never insert a comma after the adjective(s) have begun describing the noun. Although in some cases you will see it, but that only when listing.

B.) There is never a need for a comma if the word 'and' is present. A comma practically means 'and' in a sense.

C.) This seems to be the correct option.

D.) This does not even contain a comma so its an easy elimination.

Hope I helped. :) Thanks for using Brainly! :D
