To answer question 1, Cather describes the town as "trying not to be blown away," which indicates that she is using a technique known as D. personification. Personification is when non-human things are given human characteristics or traits. In this case, the town is being described as if it is making an effort to resist being blown away, which is a human-like action.
To answer question 2, the goal of Alexandra's mother while living on the prairie was to B. maintain her traditional way of life. This can be understood from the context of the story and the information provided. Other options can be ruled out based on the details given in the question.
