Question
"After he ate the chocolate cookies, guilt poked and chewed at Anthony."
What human characteristic is being given?
- Eating
- Baking
- Chewing
- Making people guilty
Hint:
Personification means giving an object human traits or feelings. When you personify an object, animal, or anything else that’s not human in your writing, you make that “thing” feel more
human. Read the sentence and identify the object which is doing something human.
The correct answer is: Chewing
In the given sentence, "guilt" which is not a human but a feeling, is doing the human action of "poking and chewing". Thus option d is the correct answer.
