B. Analogy

Analogy is a relationship between different things in which the purpose is to find similarities between them. Take a look at the example below:

singer:sing::worker:work

Above, we are saying that a singer is to singing as a worker is to working. Even though singer and worker are different things, they both have the same relationship with the verbs "sing" and "work": they perform those verbs, that is, those actions. Thus, the analogy above establishes a performer-action relationship.

In the sentence "a paycheck is to an employee like an 'A' is to a student," we have an analogy as well. The paycheck is a reward to the an employee, just like the grade "A" is a reward to a student.

In conclusion, the text connection used in the sentence is analogy, since it establishes a relationship between different things.
