Answer:

"An apprehensive night crawled slowly by like a wounded snake and sleep did not visit Rainsford, although the silence of a dead world was on the jungle."

But this sentence is also a simile as well, it uses "like", which js comparing the night that "crawled" with a snake.

expeople1 [14]

The correct answer is "A".

It is previously known by the reader that all the villagers in town are gathering together for the traditional lottery which is celebrated every June 27.
