Answer:
First options: Personal honor determines a person's self-worth and value.
Explanation:
"The Crucible" (1953) is Arthur Miller's tragedy play. The play dramatized and fictionalized version of Salem Witchcraft trials of 1692-93.
John Proctor is play's protagonist who along with many other villagers and his wife is wrongly accused of performing witchcraft which in Puritan society of that time was a crime punishable by death.
In the earlier part of the play John Proctor hides his adultery with Abigail because of public dishonor. But when he later realizes that it is not public honor what matter most rather personal integrity and honor. So, he admits his crime in front of court.
In later part of trial he is asked to confess publicly in written for his involvement in witchcraft, and save his life. He accepts it with reluctance, but when court asks him to wrongly name and testify against other members of the village, he refuses and tears part the confession document. He accepts death only because of personal and religious integrity. At this point of the play he is aloof from public honor or dishonor and wants to redeem himself by not accusing anyone wrongly. Proctor understands his preference of personal and religious integrity will take him to heaven after his death.
This thought is also expressed by Elizabeth (his wife) when she refuses to persuade Proctor to accept court's offer of accusing others and saving himself. She says,<em> </em><em>“He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!”</em>

The correct answer is 1. an extended comparison.
A metaphor is a type of comparison - when you are symbolically comparing two or more things (without using words such as like or as), you are using a metaphor. If you extend that metaphor into several lines or stanzas within a poem, then you are using an extended metaphor, which commonly appears in epic poems such as The Odyssey or The Iliad.

Answer:
I would imagine this is the hyperbole.
"Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans—born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage—and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world."
