Read the paragraph. then answer the question that follows. perhaps you wanted pizza for dinner, but were out voted by the rest of the family who wanted chili. this is similar to what happens in a community. one person has to give up a right for the good of the group. sometimes citizens' duties and rights conflict with each other. a good example is a public protest. people have the right to meet in groups and share ideas. however, a protest can disrupt traffic or other normal activities. a city must provide extra police protection to keep people safe. therefore, the city has the right to require permission in advance for a protest. government must make laws to balance the rights of individuals and different groups of people. which of the following statements best describes this paragraph? the paragraph contains categories of comparison. the paragraph contains a simile. the paragraph contains no text connections. the paragraph contains an analogy.

The paragraph contains an analogy.

Explanation:

Based on the above provided excerpt, we can see that the passage is an analogy on the two sides of every action. Just like the need to sacrifice the minority opinion for the majority, so is the same case for any protests or dissensions in a society.

Analogies provide comparisons between things for the better explanation of the issues concerned. By comparing the majority and minority opinions through the examples of "family pizza", " protests"or even "community rights", the author makes it a point to show the two sides of any story. Of course both opinions matter but for the sake of a democratized and equal footing of the two parties, there had to be some compromises made. And this is exactly what the analogy does. The analogy makes it perfectly understandable for the readers.
