Metaphor is the application of a word in a manner departed from that word’s literal intent; the previous example is not a metaphor. If you say, however, “I must abdicate my role as class clown and prepare for final exams,” it is metaphorical because the application is congruent to but not within the bounds of the word’s standard usage.

Answer:

Read the excerpt from a news report.

A local youth group, collaborating with Splash and Dash Car Wash, raised more than $450 for their annual trip to Washington, DC. These boys and girls, who work as mentors for younger children in our community, set a goal, organized the plan for a car wash, and worked with local businesses to find the perfect partner for their project. Working side by side with Splash and Dash Car Wash employees, the group washed nearly one hundred cars. As a result, they surpassed their fundraising goals and are able to focus on planning their trip. One student said, "This car wash was successful beyond our wildest dreams."

The trip to Washington, DC, is scheduled for May 19. While they visit the nation's capital, students will tour the monuments, explore the Smithsonian museums, and meet with other youth groups from around the country. They are scheduled to leave early in the morning on May 19. The manager of Splash and Dash said that he and his staff will be there to see the students off on their trip. "These kids are our future leaders. It is wonderful to see their hard work rewarded," he said.
