Explanation:

A simile uses "like" or "as" to compare two things. The sentence "Curley stepped over to Lennie like a terrier." uses "like" to compare Curley's movement to a terrier's, making it a simile. The other sentences have no such comparison with "like" or "as".

Answer:

Curley stepped over to Lennie like a terrier. "What the hell you laughin' at?"
