Answer: C. Like a starving beast, the fire consumed the forest.

Step-by-step explanation: Figurative language is a literary technique that uses words or expressions to suggest a meaning that is different from the literal interpretation. It uses figures of speech like similes, metaphors, hyperboles, etc. From the given sentences the option C is the one that uses figurative language, using a simile to compare the fire with a starving beast, it helps the reader to create a mental image.
