Letter B is the correct answer.

Options A, C and D carry a figurative (or metaphorical) meaning. A metaphorical interpretation is used to convey a meaning outside its real interpretation with a deeper dimension beyond the ordinary. However, option B can be interpreted in its actual sense. Thus, option B is a good example of a literal and uncomplicated language.
