Its A, carry. Haul and carry mean pretty much the same thing and when a dump truck hauls something, it means it is moving something in it from one place to another. A backpack carries books, and you move the backpack from one place to another. Hope this helps!

Answer: A. Carry

In this analogy, backpack and dump truck are nouns. The word "haul" (drag, pull) indicates what a dump truck is designed to do. What a backpack is designed to do is to help you carry books and other school materials. Therefore, the correct equivalent to "dump truck: haul" is "backpack: carry."
