I believe the answer is B, an extended metaphor. 
It can't be A because similes are comparing two unlike things using the words "like" or "as", which will also eliminate D.
It can't be C because a personification is where an inanimate object is given human-like qualities. 

Throughout the entire passage, the author compares Ben to a bear and uses words such as "growled", "barked", "lumbered" which shows how the comparison between the two is prolonging throughout the passage.

It is logical to infer that Mrs. Sommers avoided "such morbid retrspection" because
nexus9112 [7]
Okay so...

Morbid means to be appealed to death,
Retrospection means a look into the past.

We can infer she avoids Morbid Retrospection due to a rough past that could have caused PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). Someone could have died in her past that was close to her.

My mother's voice was like a cool, dark room in summer - peaceful, soothing, quiet.
Ad libitum [116K]
A simile is used to compare her voice to a "cool, dark room in summer- peaceful, soothing, quiet". This helps let readers know that she is most likely very nurturing, caring, and a definite "motherly figure"

A Moment to Remember My dad loved baseball. He called himself a student of the game, which meant that he was a voracious reader
Alex787 [66]
In the short story "A Moment to Remember" there are many inspirational characters. Some of the characters are very similar, and can connect in different ways. One of the characters that stand out in the story is Kathy, who enjoys sports, and going to ballgames with her father. A few words that describe her would be compassionate, understanding, even supportive. "Feeling alone and being denied opportunities, I mused, is difficult when you are surrounded by peers." Kathy shows compassion and understanding by relating to the baseball player with her own tough situation, and feeling sympathy for him. Kathy proves herself to be supportive when she says "Silence the catcalls, silence the bigots, silence the hatred," as the African American player goes up to bat.
