a it is about a topic or theme that is significant to her
b it repeats the same line over and over
c it is about events in her life
d she has read it before

Explanation:

The word "resonance" in literature implies that a work strikes a chord with a person, meaning it is about a topic or theme that is significant or meaningful to them. Repeating lines is repetition, being about events in her life is too specific as resonance can be broader, and having read it before doesn't imply resonance.

Answer:

A. It is about a topic or theme that is significant to her
