Assuming listBox1 is declared in XAML and you want to apply Fade-In animation on it. You can toggle opacity from 0 to 1 like this:

DoubleAnimation animation = new DoubleAnimation(0.0, 1.0,
                                             new Duration(new TimeSpan(0,0,1)));
listBox1.BeginAnimation(ListBox.OpacityProperty, animation);

You can achieve that with Storyboard as well (but definitely no use when you can achieve that simply using double animation):

DoubleAnimation animation = new DoubleAnimation(0.0, 1.0,
                               new Duration(new TimeSpan(0, 0, 2)));
Storyboard storyBoard = new Storyboard();
storyBoard.Children.Add(animation);
Storyboard.SetTarget(animation, listBox);
Storyboard.SetTargetProperty(animation, new PropertyPath("Opacity"));
storyBoard.Begin();
