Choose the option that does not use personification in the sentence.

  1. The sun peeped into his room through the window.
  2. The trees danced in the rain adding to the beauty of the moment.
  3. The cat stealthily came out from the darkness.
  4. The diary begged to be picked up and read.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Personification gives human qualities to non-human things. The sun 'peeped', the trees 'danced' and the diary 'begged' are all human actions attributed to objects. A cat coming out stealthily is a literal, natural feline action, so sentence 3 contains no personification.
