5 0

Answer:

A. It is peacefully exploring a nearby field.

Explanation:

In the story <em>Shooting an Elephant</em>, George Orwell describes the encounter of the narrator with the elephant:

"The elephant was standing eight yards from the road, his left side towards us. He took not the slightest notice of the crowd's approach. He was tearing up bunches of grass, beating them against his knees to clean them and stuffing them into his mouth."

"...And at that distance, peacefully eating, the elephant looked no more dangerous than a cow."

This excerpt makes A the best answer to the question.

Simile Metaphor Allusion. WHICH ONES GO WITH EACH OTHER
Eva8 [605]
A simile is when you compare one thing to another by using <em>like</em> or <em>as</em>. There's an <em>as</em> in the second one "as easily as sliding a knife...".

A metaphor is when you say something <em>is</em> something, not just like it. "[his] face became a white sheet".

An allusion is making a comparison to something the audience knows about, like comparing a rivalry to rock paper scissors (this particular one implies the speaker always wins).
