The figurative language used in this line is called "Personification." This means that an object (in this case, the cold) is given a human-like action.

"cold cannot bite through"

<span>Obviously the cold cannot LITERALLY bite through the thick socks, but the writer uses personification to add depth to the line.</span>

Which excerpt from "The Life You Save May Be Your Own" contains an example of a simile?
Elden [556K]

Answer:

"After a few minutes there was a guffawing peal of thunder from behind and fantastic raindrops, like tin-can tops, crashed  over the rear of Mr. Shiftlet's car."

Explanation:

Look at the excerpt carefully.

"After a few minutes there was a guffawing peal of thunder from behind and fantastic raindrops, like tin-can tops, crashed  over the rear of Mr. Shiftlet's car."

Similes compare nouns using the words "like" or "as."

"After a few minutes there was a guffawing peal of thunder from behind and fantastic raindrops, <u>like</u><u> tin-can tops,</u> crashed  over the rear of Mr. Shiftlet's car."

Thus, this excerpt would be the correct answer. I hope this helps! :)
