D. both say something is something else

Answer 1

answer

Answer 2

The correct answer is C. both compare two unlike things.

Similes make comparisons using "like" or "as" (e.g., "as brave as a lion"), while metaphors imply a comparison by stating that one thing is another (e.g., "time is a thief"). Both are used to draw parallels between two different subjects.
