    The answer would be simile.

    Explanation:

    The sentence is comparing you remembering something to a wave rushing over you. This means it could be a metaphor or a simile, but if you look you will see that is says the word like.

    Similes compare stuff with the words like or as, while a metaphor does not use the words like or as to compare stuff.
