Answer:

Metaphor

<h2>What is a metaphor?</h2>

A figure of speech in which a term or phrase is applied to something to which it is not literally applicable in order to suggest a resemblance, as in "A mighty fortress is our God."

In the sentence, "My son is a greyhound out of the blocks when it's hometime," the son is being compared to this because of how fast he runs to get home.  

Hence, the technique used in the phrase, "My son is a greyhound out of the blocks when it's hometime" is a metaphor.

The first-person point of view allows readers to
Gnom [1K]
The best answer provided is A. experience an event though the author's eyes

I got this because the first-person point of view is the authors perspective, or the perspective of the person who is telling the story. It uses pronouns like I or you, instead of she or he.

Hope this helps!

The italicized word (magnitude) in the sentence can best be matched by the word: size. This is referring to the size of the disaster, that it is hard to imagine something happening on that size scale.
