The dust storm swallowed the small desert town, covering everything in a layer of dirt. A) Simple B) metaphor
C) Personification

Explanation:

Metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable.

Personification is the use of human actions/movements in a non-living or non-human object or thing.

Irony means the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect.

Hyperbole means the use of exaggeration in a sentence.

Ask yourself these:

"What does the sentence mean the most?"

"What word brings the sentence imagery?"
