From research, i saw the same question with the excerpt:
<span>He sate, and eyed the sun, and wish'd the night;
Slow seem'd the sun to move, the hours to roll,
His native home deep-imaged in his soul.
As the tired ploughman, spent with stubborn toil,
Whose oxen long have torn the furrow'd soil,
Sees with delight the sun's declining ray,
When home with feeble knees he bends his way
To late repast (the day's hard labour done);
So to Ulysses welcome set the sun;
</span>
The choices are:
<span>simile
epic simile
metaphor
epithet
</span>
So the answer is "EPIC SIMILE"

HELPPPP Which two excerpts in the passage supports the claim that Paine believed the cost of the colonists' struggle against the British was well worth the outcome?
The Crisis, No. 1
by Thomas Paine (adapted excerpt)
. . . I turn with the warm ardor of a friend to those who have nobly stood, and are yet determined to stand the matter out: I call not upon a few, but upon all: not on this state or that state, but on every state: up and help us; lay your shoulders to the wheel; better have too much force than too little, when so great an object is at stake. Let it be told to the future world, that in the depth of winter, when nothing but hope and virtue could survive, that the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet and to repulse it. Say not that thousands are gone, turn out your tens of thousands; throw not the burden of the day upon Providence, but "show your faith by your works," that you may be blessed. It matters not where you live, or what rank of life you hold, the effect or the blessing will reach you all. The far and the near, the home counties and the back, the rich and the poor, will suffer or rejoice alike. The heart that feels not now is cold; the children will criticize his cowardice, who shrinks back at a time when a little might have saved the whole, and made them happy. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. 'Tis the business of little minds to shrink; but he whose heart is firm, and whose conscience approves his conduct, will pursue his principles. My own line of reasoning is to myself as straight and clear as a ray of light. Not all the treasures of the world, so far as I believe, could have induced me to support an offensive, for I think it wrong; but if a thief breaks into my house, burns and destroys my property, and threatens me, or those that are in it, and to "bind me in all cases whatsoever" to his absolute will, am I to suffer it?

Explanation:
Starting with its very title, "Song of Myself" is indeed a poetic embodiment of the transcendentalist philosophy. Whitman (or the speaker who calls himself Whitman) doesn't sing and praise some outside ideals or occurrences, but himself. This is the transcendentalist ideal of self-reliance, explained in Emerson's eponymous essay. It says that the greatest strength of every individual is his/her own self, independent, free from authority and restraints, liberated and self-sufficient. Both Emerson and Whitman, each in his own right, have written a giant ode to individualism.
Another transcendentalist ideal embodied in Whitman's famous poem is relationship with nature. In his view, nature is the source of genuine beauty and wisdom, uncorrupted by the touch of social and political institutions. Whitman says "<span>I will go to the bank by the wood and become undisguised and naked", which means that nature is the only realm of sincerity, and people can only be true to themselves if they are independent of humanity but close to nature.
Just like Transcendentalism has been a unique, authentic American take on Romanticism, Whitman has been the pillar of American national and cultural identity in poetry. He has taken the very American notion of individualism (defined and praised by transcendentalists) and put it in his poetry, most notably in "Song of Myself" as the most self-obsessed, yet not egotistical account of modern American poetry.</span>
