Answer:

D. Metaphor and simile.

Step-by-step explanation:

A metaphor is a figure of speech in which an association between disparaging things is made by means of direct comparison (love is fire). A simile, much like the metaphor, also draws an association between two things that would otherwise not be connected, but it does it by indirect means, using words such as “like” or “as” (love is like fire).
