This is an "inherent function" analogy. A PENDULUM is designed to OSCILLATE (move back and forth); similarly, an automobile is designed to travel.

D. shake : earthquake. While not a perfect match, this choice represents a relationship where "shake" is the characteristic or action typically associated with an "earthquake." Just as a pendulum oscillates, an earthquake involves shaking or trembling.
