Question

select the sentence that uses personification. tiny wildflowers shyly emerged through the cracks in the pavement. fine rays of sunlight trickled through the tangle of leaves overhead. the old canoe tipped as it scraped against the river rocks.

Explanation:

Personification is giving human traits to non - human things. In "Tiny wildflowers shyly emerged through the cracks in the pavement", "shyly" is a human - like behavior, and wildflowers (non - human) are given this human trait. The other sentences describe actions without giving human characteristics to non - human subjects.

Answer:

Tiny wildflowers shyly emerged through the cracks in the pavement.
