[amp_mcq option1=”Signify” option2=”Characterise” option3=”Personify” option4=”Masquerade” correct=”option3″]
The correct answer is C. Personify.
To personify something is to give it human characteristics. For example, we might say that a country is personified by its leader, or that a company is personified by its CEO.
The other options are incorrect because they do not mean to give something human characteristics.
- To signify something is to indicate or point to it. For example, a red light signifies that you should stop.
- To characterise something is to describe its essential features. For example, we might say that a person is characterised by their kindness or their intelligence.
- To masquerade is to pretend to be someone or something that you are not. For example, a spy might masquerade as a journalist in order to gather information.
