c. metaphorIn the above passage, the figurative language that exists is
in the form of the following words: “starless
midnight of racism and war.” We know the
figurative language is not a simile because similes will include the use of the
words “as” or “like,” and these words are not present. We know the figurative language is not
personification because personification gives human attributes to non-human
things, and this is not occurring here.
We also know the figurative language is not a hyperbole because a
hyperbole is a type of exaggeration, and there does not appear to be an
exaggeration here. Thus, we can conclude
that the figurative language is a metaphor because a metaphor makes comparisons
that are not literally applicable. That
said, because there are technically no stars or times of day in racism and war,
it can be deduced that the type of figurative language used is metaphor.

Answer:
Character
Explanation:
Authors will describe characters explicitly either by observation of another character or via a narrator. The purpose of this is to allow the reader to get to know the character intimately in order to use any behaviour that they display later as understandable based on how they were described when they were introduced.
Building the characters also allows the writer to engage the reader's emotions by giving the character likable, unlikable or relatable traits. These are often full of descriptive words and very intimate details about the Character that sometimes only they themselves will know.
