Answer:

Simile is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In literature, a simile is a rhetorical device used to compare two things. It is different from other types of comparison like metaphors, specially because metaphors express an implicit comparison. In the simile, the comparison is explicit and it uses words such as "like" or "as" to indicate it.
