Explanation:

A simile is a figure of speech that makes a comparison between two different things using the words "like" or "as". In the given sentence, "His eyes were as sad as fishes..." uses "as" to compare the sadness of his eyes to the state of the fishes, which fits the definition of a simile. Hyperbole is an exaggeration, personification gives human traits to non - human things, and metaphor makes a direct comparison without "like" or "as".

Answer:

D. Simile
