Question
select the personification in the passage.
the driver again took his seat, and shaking his reins, started off at a great pace.
this time, after going to the far side of the pass, he suddenly turned down a
narrow roadway which ran sharply to the right.
soon we were hemmed in with trees, which in places arched right over the
roadway till we passed as through a tunnel; and again great frowning rocks
guarded us boldly on either side. it grew colder and colder still, and fine, powdery
snow began to fall, so that soon we and all around us were covered with a white
blanket.

Personification is giving human traits to non - human things. In the sentence "and again great frowning rocks guarded us boldly on either side", the rocks are described as "frowning" (a human facial expression) and "guarded" (a human action), so this is personification.
