zvonat [6]3 years ago

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!

-Dylan (AKA Animus)

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Correct answer is C.

Explanation:

"Yield to any road users who arrived before you",

We can apply this to the road situation. When we are in a situation  of a four-way stop with no traffic light, the first car that arrives at the intersection has "the right of way" or he has the priority to go first. The location of the cars or their direction don't have any importance; the car that arrives first at the intersection has the priority to go first ( first in, first out).
