Answer 2

One example of personification in A Separate Peace by John Knowles is the line "the tea brown color moved along the wrong teal line." This personifies the tea color as if it's capable of moving and making a mistake. Another example is "the tree swayed in the wind, whispering secrets to the passing breeze." This gives human-like qualities to the tree as if it's able to whisper and share secrets.

Answer 3

There were several trees bleakly reaching into the fog.
