Final answer:
The options provided (a-d) do not contain explicit metaphors. However, a metaphor is present in another excerpt, where a woman's immovability is compared to rocks in a pasture, a metaphor for steadfastness.
Step-by-step explanation:
Identifying metaphors in sentences requires understanding that a metaphor is a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable. In the provided examples, metaphors are not explicitly present in the options a) The men attending the funeral, b) The women attending the funeral, c) Miss Emily's house, and d) The town, as these are simply descriptions of characters or settings without any comparative elements.
However, the phrase 'The old man glanced doggedly at his wife as he tightened the last buckles on the harness. She looked as immovable to him as one of the rocks in his pasture-land, bound to the earth with generations of blackberry vines.' contains a metaphor comparing the woman's immovability to rocks bound by blackberry vines, suggesting her steadfastness and perhaps stubbornness.
