Which quotation from "Hansel and Gretel” is an example of a simile?

A simile compares two things using words such as “like” or “as.” In choice D, Hansel is compared to “a bird out of a cage” using “like,” so it is the simile. The other quotations describe the cottage, the old woman, or the beds without making a direct comparison.
