Answer: I would contend that the right answer is the D) The overwhelming number of geese at the park has become unacceptable.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that the viewpoint is the author's point of view. The previous sentences do not contain a point of view, but a series of past events: the author and his or her family attended a picnic at the park and they were mobbed by geese that stole their lunches. In addition, the introductory sentence exposes the reason why he or she is writing the letter. It is only at the end when he or she provides a personal opinion about the presence of geese at the park—"it has become unacceptable," he or she declares.

Bumek [7]

Answer: B. Figurative language

Figurative language refers to the use of words in ways that are not meant to be taken literally. It uses words in a way that deviates from their conventional use in order to convey a different meaning or heighten the effect of the speech. In this case, the phrase "to crush him like a fly" does not literally mean that Grendel wants to crush Unferth in the same way as a fly. The statement is not to be taken literally. Instead, it is intended to heighten the feeling of anger and frustration that Grendel feels towards Unferth.
