Incomplete question. here are the options:

A. attitudes toward tedious labor

B) solutions to a long-standing problem

C) two distinct perspectives of the world

D) personal beliefs about honorable conduct

E) opposing sides in a controversy

Answer:

A. attitudes toward tedious labor

Explanation:

A simile is a figure of speech used to compare one thing with another thing of a different kind.

The words of line 40 reads;

<em>"In each hand, </em><em>like an old-stone savage armed</em>

<em>He moves in darkness as it seems to me, Not of woods only and the shade of trees.</em>

<em>He will not go behind his father's saying And he likes having thought of it so well."</em>

Hence, the speaker likens "each hand" to an "old stone" in other to make a contrast between attitudes toward tedious labor which is evident if we examine previous lines.
