Question

what does the personification in this text suggest? the trawler plunged into the angry swells of the dark, furious sea. —robert ludlum, the bourne identity the sea was fierce. the sea took revenge on the trawler.

Explanation:

Personification gives human traits to non - human things. In the text, "angry" and "furious" (human emotions) are used to describe the sea. "Angry" and "furious" imply a fierce nature. The idea of the sea "taking revenge" is not suggested as there's no indication of the sea acting with the intent of revenge; it's just described with fierce - like emotions. So the personification suggests the sea was fierce.

Answer:

The sea was fierce.
