Answer:
A. attitudes toward tedious labor
Explanation:
A simile is a figure of speech used to compare one thing with another thing of a different kind.
The words of line 40 reads;
"In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed
He moves in darkness as it seems to me, Not of woods only and the shade of trees.
He will not go behind his father's saying And he likes having thought of it so well."
Hence, the speaker likens "each hand" to an "old stone" in other to make a contrast between attitudes toward tedious labor which is evident if we examine previous lines.
In line 40 ("like ... armed"), the speaker uses a simile to draw attention to the contrast between two distinct perspectives of the world.
- A simile is used to compare something with another thing that's different. The statement in line 40 is "In each hand, like an old, stone savage armed..."
- The statement showed that each hand was being compared to an old stone. In this case, two distinct perspectives of the world were used by the author in illustrating his point.
In conclusion, the correct option is C.
