An epic simile is basically a regular simile, but it takes place over the course of several lines in poetry. There is no evidence in the excerpt provided that the correct answer could be a simile, so we’ll rule that option out.
The phrase starting in medias generally means that it’s a somewhat introduction. It can often introduce the story in the beginning, or be a great start if you want to start your story with a flashback. I’d say this is a good answer for the question, but just in case there’s a better one let’s go over the other options as well.
To invoke the muse would be to get inspiration for whatever it is you’re going to start doing. For example, let’s say you’re writing a story, and you have no ‘muse.’ Here you’d ‘pray to the muse gods’ to give you muse, or in another word, inspiration. This is clearly not the answer because the passage is not invoking any muse. They clearly already know which direction they’re taking with the story.
And finally, the use of epithets would be to specifically describing something and/ or someone. Sure, this passage caries descriptive detail, but that’s not its primary focus.
In conclusion, the correct answer to this question is b ) starting in medias res

Answer:
The author's contrasting statements create a cause and consequence structure in the text, which shows the reasons why people mourn Lincoln, but also shows the causes and reasons for hoping that Lincoln's legacy will be continued by those who respect you
Explanation:
The author presents the reasons why the population mourns Lincoln's death, showing how he left a legacy for all his work in the leadership of the country and in the management that managed not only to unite the country, but also to rebuild it. These causes provoke suffering, but they also provoke the hope of God's providence that will allow this legacy to be continued. That's because the author claims that God only allows suffering to those he loves and if God loves America, it means that he will promote Linconl's legacy to be continued.
