Answer:

C: a commonly used metaphor that has become part of ordinary language.

Explanation:

A  metaphor is a <em>figure of speech</em>  that compares two things by saying that one thing is another. A dead metaphor are those metaphors that, traditionally, have lost their force, but continue as <em>clichés</em>, or <em>everyday idioms</em>. For example: The <em>face</em> or <em>hand</em> of a watch no longer bring the comparison with parts of the human body.

SUMMARIZE THIS PLEASE!! AND EXPLAIN WHAT IT MEANS!! School officials need not obtain a warrant before searching a student who is
JulsSmile [24]
The statement says:

"School officials need not obtain a warrant before searching a student who is under their authority; rather, a search of a student need only be reasonable under all the circumstances."

Let's break it down:

School officials (people that work at the school, probably security officers of some type or maybe even merely just faculty) need not obtain a warrant (do not need a search warrant) before searching a student who is under their authority (before searching a student who they are in charge of).  Rather, a search of a student need only be reasonable under all the circumstances (Instead, the search of the student just needs to be reasonably justified by any and all circumstances and knowledge at the current time).

Hope this helps!!
