Question

Tap the sentences that use personification.

• A.
  He is a night owl.
• B.
  You are my sunshine.
• C.
  Silence crept into the classroom.
• D.
  The stars danced in the sky.

Answer 1

Answer: (C), (D)

The stars danced in the sky.
The correct answers are 'Silence crept into the classroom.' and 'The stars danced in the sky'. Both 'silence' and 'the stars' are not people, however, 'creeping' and 'dancing' suggests that they are behaving like humans so these two sentences use personification.
