Clarence kicked the flat tire angrily. now he'd never get to the interview on time. with a sigh, he removed his jacket and tie and began to assemble the jack. at least his father had made sure he knew how to change a tire before he passed away. maybe the company would understand and reschedule the interview. clarence thought about the portfolio sitting on his passenger seat — the one the ceo would never get to look at today. which of the following best describes the symbolism used in the passage? a. the portfolio symbolizes clarence's hopes and hard work. b. the tie symbolizes the oppression of corporate life. c. the flat tire symbolizes the people who stand in the way of clarence's dreams. d. the father symbolizes the lost time that clarence can't get back.

The best that describes the symbolism used in this passage is option A. the portfolio symbolizes Clarence’s hopes and hard work.

Clarence realizes that he won’t be able to arrive on time at the interview so when he looks at the portfolio he sees his dreams of getting the job fade away as he believes it’s difficult that the company will reschedule the appointment.  

Option B is incorrect since the focus is on Clarence not being able to arrive to the interview.

Option D is also incorrect as Clarence brings the memories of his father as a happy one, since he learnt from his father.
