Question

'The run down house appeared depressed and out of sorts.'  What human quality/trait is being demonstrated in the sentence?

  1. House
  2. Depression
  3. Happiness
  4. Loneliness

hintHint:

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/feeling something human.

The correct answer is: Depression


    In the given sentence, "the house" which is not a human demonstrates the human feeling of depression. Thus the correct answer is option b.
