Answer:

Imagery.

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagery is elucidated as one of the most commonly employed figurative devices that aims to present the objects or ideas through vivid details and descriptions that appeal to the senses of the readers. It assists the readers to imagine and visualize the ideas mentally and associate to them that helps elicit intended response from them.

In the given excerpt from Hemingway's 'In another country', 'imagery' is the literary style that is being reflected as the use of vividly descriptive words like 'cold in the fall', 'dark', 'electric lights', 'pleasant', 'hanging outside the shops', etc. offers a sensory experience to the readers through which they are able to visualize the images presented in the scene and understand it more effectively. Therefore, 'imagery' is the correct answer.
