Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

"Rays danced" personifies sunlight, matching "Earth is a kind being" (III), also personification. "Apple of my eye" is a metaphor, matching "He was a lion in the battlefield" (I). "Ten thousand tasks in a jiffy" is hyperbole, matching the exaggeration "ran faster than lightning" (IV). "Betty bought some butter" is alliteration, matching "hummed a beautiful hymn" (II). Thus A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II.
