A.  The fog and the waves are made to seem alive and evil.

Explanation:

Figurative language is the use of certain poetic devices to make the poem seem colorful and with more life than just a mere group of words. These literary devices are used by writers to give a much more interesting image to their works.

In the given poem "On The Shore" by Sarah Chauncey Woolsey, the speaker personifies the waves and fog as if they are alive and capable of doing things like human beings.

In lines 11 and 12, the speaker talks of the fog "laugh[ing] low" and "the white waves watch[ing] it with cruel eyes". This personification device shows the fog and waves seem evil and alive at the same time.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
