d) Rythm
o simile​

Answer 1

The correct ans is simile

Answer 2

The right solution to the given question from the provided options is Simile.

• The simile is used in the sentence to contrast two things or objects for their characteristics or trait.
• In the given sentence another object is being contrasted with the way the ship moves or sails in the water.
• This is used to show how much one thing or object is related to another thing to draw a clear picture of the first thing in the reader's mind by relating it with another thing.
• Metaphor is incorrect here because it is not given the direct name of the second thing to first while contrasting.
• Alliteration is incorrect because the sentence uses the word "like" word to show similarity.
• The rhythm is incorrect because there is no pattern in the sentence.
• Hence, the simile is correct in context to this line.
