Answer:

b.While slowly the house of day is closing its eastern shutters

Explanation:

A metaphore is giving something the attributes of something else that do not belong to them or normally wouldn´t belong to that thing, in this case specifically the day time is compared to a house, that is closing its shutters meaning that the day is coming to an end, and the sun is no longer iluminating the world. This is a metaphor to let you know that the sun is setting.
