The walrus and the carpenter
The sun was shining on the sea
Shining with all his might
He did his very best to make
the billows smooth and bright
And this was odd because it was
the middle of the night
The moon was shining sulkily
Because she thought the sun
had no business to be there
After the day was done
Its very rude of him, she said
To come and spoil the fun

@Hello was the answers correct?
In lines 1-4 of the poem "The Walrus and the Carpenter," the figurative language used is personification. Personification is when human characteristics or qualities are attributed to non-human things. In this case, the sun is described as doing his best to make the billows smooth and bright, which is a human quality.
As for the conclusion that can be drawn about the moon in the poem, it is stated in the text that she is "shining sulkily" and believes the sun has no business to be there after the day is done. This suggests that the moon is jealous of how much brighter the sun is than she is, so the correct answer would be C. She is jealous of how much brighter the sun is than she is.
