The "jeremiads" aimed at lamenting the state of degeneration of the people, the exhortation to action to secure redemption, and the alert to permanent zeal for the omnipresent evil.

The "jeremiads" acted as an instrument of social control, channeling thoughts and energies for the promotion of convention, the perfection of community life, and the salvation of souls.

Ben growled when I walked into his room. He barked at me to close the door as he lumbered back to his desk. He is such a bear in

I believe the answer is B, an extended metaphor. 
It can't be A because similes are comparing two unlike things using the words "like" or "as", which will also eliminate D.
It can't be C because a personification is where an inanimate object is given human-like qualities. 

Throughout the entire passage, the author compares Ben to a bear and uses words such as "growled", "barked", "lumbered" which shows how the comparison between the two is prolonging throughout the passage.

Identify the point of view in this paragraph: The dew on the grass made
Artemon [7]

I've looked this question up online. The options are simply:

a. First Person

b. Second Person

c. Third Person

Answer:

The point of view in this paragraph is:

a. First person.

Explanation:

The narrator of the excerpt is telling the story from a first-person point of view. The easiest way to confirm that is by taking a look at the pronouns used:

The dew on the grass made  my running shoes damp. It didn't bother me. The sound of my feet hitting  the street formed a rhythm, a steady pattern of light thumps. I timed my breathing with the rhythm.

<u>First-person narrators use first-person pronouns such as "I" and "me". This type of narrator gives us his/her own perspective on things. That means we accompany this narrator throughout the story, see things from his perspective, and only get to know what he knows. One advantage of first-person point of view is that we get to dive deeper into the narrator's feelings and thoughts. One disadvantage is that he is a biased narrator, which makes him untrustworthy.</u>
