The word that best describes the author's attitude toward continuing on the "academic road to success" is "Neutral."
It is neutral because the author is just given recommendations on how to approach the road of academic success and life. The author is not being subjective nor adding personal comments that could bias its idea.
For instance, the author is not using optimistic ideas that try to motivate. On the other hand, the author is not adding pessimistic comments that could also bias its information.
That is why "neutral" is the best term to describe the attitude of the author.
Answer:
The correct answer is C. The grandmother was against the teaching of music because she considered music a monopoly of harlot's and beggars.
Explanation:
The question refers to the novel "The portrait of a lady", in which the narrator of the story moves with her grandmother to a rural area far from the city, and begins to go to school.

It is an epic simile. This is because the comparisons are "long and involved". The main difference between an epic simile (also known as Homeric simile) and an ordinary simile is than an epic simile is very detailed and can span over many lines. Where as a normal simile usually is contained within one or two lines.
Example of epic simile:
But swift Aias the son of Oïleus would not at all now take his stand apart from Telamonian Aias,
not even a little; but as two wine-coloured oxen straining
with even force drag the compacted plough through the fallow land,
and for both of them at the base of the horns the dense sweat gushes;
only the width of the polished yoke keeps a space between them
as they toil down the furrow till the share cuts the edge of the ploughland;
so these took their stand in battle, close to each other.
Normal simile:
As white as a ghost
