The answer should be comparison. The sentence is comparing the top award to the nobel prize.

Answer:

The correct option is "Comparison"

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparison is a rethorical device used to compare things, people or places. Several figures of speech use comparison as a writing device.

In this example, the option "metaphor" is incorrect since a metaphor does not use the words "like" or "as" to compare ideas as in the example provided.
