The question is incomplete, and the full version can be found on study-assistant.

Answer:

Personification - "...until the small hours of the morning began to grow large".

Simile - "the shop fronts stood along that thoroughfare with an air of invitation, like rows of smiling saleswomen".

Hyperbole - "I was coming home from some place at the end of the world, about three o'clock of a black winter morning..."

Step-by-step explanation:

Personification is a figure of speech that presents an object or animal with human qualities. In this case, the hours are described as growing, which only living things can do.

A simile compares two unlike things using the words "like“ and "as“, such as in the comparison between the doors and the rows of smiling saleswomen.

A hyperbole states an exaggeration to emphasize a point, such as describing a faraway place as somewhere at the end of the world.
