Which of the following sentences does not use language figuratively? My day at school was a marathon and a triathlon combined. I felt like I could take a nap after the long day of tests that I had. You should have seen me; I was like a bee buzzing from flower to flower. My backpack was exhausted after the day that I had at school.
Figurative language is when you say something indirectly, like the true meaning of your words isn't said outright. Figurative language includes similes (using like or as to compare), metaphors (similes without the like or as), personification (giving human-like qualities to inanimate objects), etc. So, the correct answer would be "You should have seen me; I was like a bee buzzing from flower to flower." This sentence uses a simile. "I was LIKE a bee". The person in the sentence isn't a bee, but is being compared to one using a simile.

No, @Lena772 , it was C
