Answer

Brief Explanations:

  • Question 6: Personification is giving human traits to non - human things. In "The night was calm and still as crickets chirped and owls hooted under the light of the moon", "night" is non - human. "Calm and still" are human - like states of being.
  • Question 7: "Diamonds are a girl's best friend" gives diamonds (a non - human object) the trait of being a "best friend" (a human relationship trait).
  • Question 8: "the creaky floorboards warned Big Vito" gives floorboards (non - human) the human action of "warning".
  • Question 9: "Her long vivacious hair enjoyed many beautiful adventures" gives hair (non - human) the human emotion of "enjoying" (a form of having experiences/emotions).
  • Question 10: "the forest would keep its many secrets" gives the forest (non - human) the human trait of "keeping secrets" (an action related to knowledge and intention).
