• The first option: The analogy to a film with child actors helps readers visualize the prevalence of young workers in fast - food.
• The second option: The comparison (analogy) between the fast - food kitchen scene and the film (filmmaking industry in a sense of the 'cast' being young) is valid.
• The third option: The text does not imply adults are better; it's about the presence of young workers.
