An example of personification the author uses to tell the historical plot of the River Thames is, 'The Thames runs right through the center of London.'

Answer: Option C.

Explanation:

Personification means attributing the characteristics of a human to a non human thing. In the above mentioned sentences, the statement which is an example of personification is 'The Thames runs right through the center of London.' In this sentence we can see that the river Thames is given a human trait of running, an action that a human can do, thus making it a personification. While in the rest of the sentences, no qualities or traits of a human is being assigned to the Thames river.
