The answer is C) Create a metaphor based on familiar experience.

Explanation:

The aphorism "For age and want, save while you may; No morning sun lasts a whole day" is one of the many famous words of wisdom attributed to Benjamin Franklin in his Poor Richard's Almanac. Franklin uses a metaphor to conclude his argument on why people should save money for the future. The morning sun can be associated to youth, health, and money. When we have those, they may seem easy to obtain and we might feel like they will last forever. But, just like the morning sun, they will not. We all will eventually grow old and sick. The only way to make sure we will have some money left to tend to our need is to save it now, while we are still young.
