Answer

Brief Explanations:

Personification is a literary device where non - human things are given human qualities. In the sentence "The canyon yawned before us, remarkable in its width and depth", the canyon (a non - human entity) is given the human action of "yawning". The other sentences do not assign human qualities to non - human things. The second sentence is about Jen (a human) and the third sentence is about Jen (a human) looking at diamond earrings (no personification as the earrings just "sparkled" which is a natural description for them).

Answer:

The canyon yawned before us, remarkable in its width and depth.
