What is a simile?

Simile refers to the comparison of two or more things using 'like' and 'as.' In this line from the poem, Nature by Ralph Waldo Emerson, we can see that there is a comparison between man's years in the woods and the manner in which the snake removes its slough.

The factor that makes us clearly identify this line as a simile is the use of the word, "as." Metaphor is also similar to simile but there is no usage of the words, like and as. So, option D is right.
