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.
