    Answer: B) Simile.

    Explanation: A simile is a figure of speech that consists in making a comparison between elements that aren't obviously related, this comparison is made using the words "like" and "as." In the given excerpt, we can see an example of a simile ("which growled from the beginning, as if the Victrola were only slowly being wound up"), that compares a growl to the sound of the Victrola being wound up, using the word "as."
