Answer
A
the best dance ever
B
the seventh-grade fashion police
C
staring at me all night
D
like a bunch of eagles

Explanation

“The seventh-grade fashion police” is a metaphor because it directly compares the students judging the speaker’s clothes to police, without using “like” or “as.” The students aren’t actual officers. “Like a bunch of eagles” is a simile because it makes a comparison using “like.”
