Personification can make abstract ideas more...

Personification is a literary device that attributes human qualities or traits to non-human entities or abstract concepts. By doing so, it allows readers to visualize and connect with ideas that might otherwise be difficult to grasp or feel disconnected from. For example, when we say "time marches on," we give the abstract concept of time a sense of movement and purpose, making it easier for readers to relate to it.

Because personification can illustrate abstract ideas in a tangible way, it makes these concepts more concrete. This vivid representation enhances understanding and emotional resonance, enabling readers to engage more deeply with the material. In contrast, the other options do not capture this effect; factual refers to accurate information without emotional engagement, complicated suggests added complexity rather than clarity, and unclear implies a lack of understanding, which conflicts with the intention of personification to clarify concepts.
