Antecedent is an expression that gives meaning to the word coming after that. For example, I was late to the meeting because police held me for speeding. In this sentence, pronoun me is an explained word which explain another pronoun - I. Antecedent has been used correctly in this sentence. In this question, the first option is correct. Antecedent has been used incorrectly in the second sentence because it's unclear who is considered with the pronoun he. The third option is also an incorrect antecedent because the explaining word has not been given.

A figure of speech based on a comparison that is not literally true is known as what?
zvonat [6]

This must be from a standardized test. The wording is a little confusing, but I'd say it is a metaphor. Google says the definition of metaphor is "a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable." This is saying something <em>is</em> something, or comparing two items without using "as" or "like". Have a good night/day!
