Answer:

l will give all the possibility to this options

Step-by-step explanation:

d.simile

l will keep this option aside because here two drifference elements have to be compared using word either 'as' or 'like' and we can see in this pharse "Time flies by" these words are not used.

a.metaphor

Here comparison is done. The time is compared with a act of quick flying. So there is possibility this may be the answer.

b.idom

here the pharse clearly signify a meaning that time is running quickly. so this also can be included to the option

c.personification

in this case the time is given a lively characteristics of flying. This may be the answer.

so the highest possibility through my assumption and knowledge, it can be metaphor
