The answer is A because a simile compares and object using "like" or "as" and A is the only one that has ''as'' so A is correct.

A simile is a figure of speech comparing on object/thing to another. The most reasonable answer I believe is A. "Limp as a licorice whip". It is comparing something being as limp as a licorice whip. Hope this helps you!
