I think it is a metaphor. Metaphor's are like similes but don use "like" or "as".

For example: I am a pig at dinner.

That is a metaphor because I'm saying that I'm a pig at dinner, but I don't literally mean it.

For a simile:

I am like a pig at dinner.

I say like because I'm comparing myself with a pig. And I used like. So it makes it a simile.

I hope that helps! :)

So the answer is metaphor.

Simile is a figure of speech that may be used by authors and poets where two things are compared to each other with the help of words such as ‘like’, ‘as ‘, ‘so’, etc.  "As a new jar I am empty and open" is an example of option C: simile.

  • In the above sentence, the person is being compared to the new jar as he feels empty and open.

  • The usage of the word ‘as’ along with the above reasoning, points to the fact that the figure of speech used is simile.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
