What type of figurative language is this?

D) simile.

Answer 1

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. The type of figurative language used would be simile.  It is a figure of speech that directly compares two things by using connecting words for instance like and as. Hope this answers the question.

Answer 2

Answer:

I believe the correct answer is D) Simile.

Explanation:

A simile is a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more vivid, for example, in this sentence from The Truth About Diaries by Marie Devers, she compares her diary to a novel from the store. Obviously, her diary is not a novel from the library, so in this way, we know she is using a simile in her sentence to compare what she feels her diary is or represents.
