Choose the option that does not use personification in the sentence.

The correct answer is Option (3) → The cat stealthily came out from the darkness.

Personification:

• Personification gives human qualities, feelings or actions to things that are not human.
• The thing described is made to behave like a person: it may speak, feel, dance or beg.
• In "The cat stealthily came out from the darkness", the cat does only what cats really do: it moves quietly and secretly. No human quality is given to it, so the sentence does not use personification.
  Example: The old house groaned in the storm.

Why the Other Options are Incorrect?

Option 1: The sun peeped into his room through the window. — Incorrect. Correct use: The sun is given the human action of peeping (looking secretly), so this is personification.

Option 2: The trees danced in the rain adding to the beauty of the moment. — Incorrect. Correct use: Trees cannot dance; giving them this human action is personification.

Option 4: The diary begged to be picked up and read. — Incorrect. Correct use: Only a person can beg; the diary is personified.

Contrast: a non-human thing doing a human action (peeping, dancing, begging) is personification; a cat moving stealthily is only doing what cats do.
