Which line in this excerpt from richard connell's “the most dangerous game” uses personification? "the old charts call it `ship-trap island,"' whitney replied. “a suggestive name, isn't it? sailors have a curious dread of the place. i don't know why. some superstition—-" "can't see it," remarked rainsford, trying to peer through the dank tropical night that was palpable as it pressed its thick warm blackness in upon the yacht. "you've good eyes," said whitney, with a laugh, "andi've seen you pick off a moose moving in the brown fall bush at four hundred yards, but even you can't see four miles or so through a moonless caribbean night." "nor four yards," admitted rainsford. "ugh! it's like moist black velvet."

Hi, 

The following line from the excerpt shows personification:

"Can't see it," remarked Rainsford, trying to peer through the dank tropical night that was palpable as it pressed its thick warm blackness in upon the yacht.

It is personifying the night.

both the address and the poster use diction to convey their message. diction is defined as a style of writing or speaking based on the types of words chosen in order to send a message. parallelism is when a similar sentence structure is used for several sentences on a text; roosevelt's address doesn't follow that. repetition has to do with repeating a word or sentence in order to emphasize and idea, however neither the poster nor the address use repetion. finally, the address doesn't use images to convey a message.
