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.

Which story premise most clearly lacks conflict?
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

A. A young girl enjoys playing games of make-believe with the dolls

and stuffed animals she has in her bedroom.

Explanation:

A conflict in a plot is defined as any struggle between opposing forces. Conflict the main deriving force of the story. Without a conflict the story will not be a story.

Option A has no conflict as there is no force opposing the young girl's playing with dolls and stuffed animals.

Option B has a conflict that the older man is not able to recall his experiences in World War II.

Option C has a conflict that he gets a flat tire but has to reach in time for work.  The conflict in this case has already been resolved as well.

In Option D, the student has to work hard to impress Harvard, and become the valedictorian. This is not an easy task.
