Figurative language is the use of words in a way that they have a strong impact on the reader. One of the figurative language strategies is the use of personification in which an object or an animal is given human characteristics. In this case, the best example of figurative language in the passage is D: At evening it hath died away. The reference of the pronoun it in the latter sentence is not clear, it can refer to the sun or to the haze. Either way, none the sun or the haze can die; they only dissapear or they move away, but the action of dying is human; therefore, this sentence represents a personification.
