Simile
Metaphor
Personification
Symbolism
Allusion

Answer 3

I think it's C

Answer 4

Well, process of elimination. It's definitely not a simile because it doesn't contain "like" or "as." It's not personification because nothing is doing human-like actions. It's not allusion because it doesn't go back to other references. So, I'd say either B or D

Answer 5

It doesn't seem to be symbolism because it doesn't have another meaning behind it, so I'd probably go with B.
