what about it?

Explanation:

Yes, because the commentary connects Dickinson's personification to her ideas about human nature.

The commentary clearly connects the personification to ideas about human nature. In the commentary the author writes how hope is a "quality that masks us persevere". This connects with the personification in the poem because Dickinson, describing hope as "the thing with feathers" says that it "never stops at all". Persevere means to carry on through tough times without stopping. Option A is incorrect because it the commentary does connect. C is also incorrect because it adds more than a paraphrase when it talks about raging storms. D is also incorrect because birds really have nothing to do with this.
