Final answer:

The sentence is a simile comparing the student's happiness to sand running out of their hand.


Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is O Simile; Sand: hand. This comparison is a simile because it uses the words "like" or "as" to directly compare two things: the student's happiness and sand running out of their hand.
