The first sentence, “When I get home, the warm smell from the kitchen greets me at the door,” is an example of personification, as it attributes human qualities (greeting) to the warm smell.

The second sentence, “The soup gurgles and splats on the stove when it boils over,” is an example of onomatopoeia, as it uses words (gurgles and splats) that imitate the sounds they describe.
