The meaning of the phrase "Josh is a bulldozer on the football field" is (d.) metaphorical.

<u>"Josh is a bulldozer" is a metaphor</u>. In other words,<u> the reader should not take this phrase literally since it is not being used with its basic meaning</u>. A metaphor is based on a comparison between two things. In this case, <u>the things that are being compared are Josh and a bulldozer</u>; therefore, the metaphor is used to indicate that a bulldozer is representative of Josh because they share something in common:<u> both of them are powerful</u>.

The answer is D. metaphorical because Josh is being compared to an unlike thing (a bulldozer) without 'like' or 'as.'
(A simile is the same thing except it is the comparing of two unlike things using 'like' or 'as'.)
