The sentence that gives an example of an analogy is: "The grass in the front yard made walking to the mailbox like trudging through the Amazon rain forest."

An analogy is a comparison between two things for the purpose of explanation or clarification, and this sentence uses a simile to compare the experience of walking through grass to the much more challenging experience of trudging through a rain forest.
