Answer:
Mysterious Stranger
Prompt: Write a story that includes the words sunscreen, camera, and tourist.
He really did look like a tourist, with a camera around his neck and a bottle of sunscreen sticking out of his tote bag.
The portly man sat on the terrace, sipping lemonade and pretending to look at a glossy cruise brochure. His sunglasses masked his eyes, but I knew he wasn't looking at the brochure: he hadn't turned a page for the last ten minutes.
As I brought him his clam chowder, he coughed up a "thank you" and looked at me briefly. I tried not to stare at the tiny scar across his left eyebrow.
I walked back inside with my empty tray, shaking my head. He looked familiar, but I couldn't quite place him.

I just took the test on Plato/Edmentum and got it correct ♡ Hope this helps !
In this excerpt, the writer criticizes that the Allies did not respond strongly enough to the death camps in Germany and Poland. He argues that it was easy to postpone the deaths of some people and that one should fight at every instance against crime. It is clear that the author is against the opinion that countries should remain neutral or that people should avoid confrontation at all costs; when human lives are at stake one should mobilize and dispose of the mantle of neutrality. He would probably agree with the opinion that one should proactively fight injustice; this practice would have saved many lives during the holocaust. The correct answer is b. D is wrong because while he thinks that their stance was bad, they did not cause the Holocaust; they just handled it incorrectly.
1. I read the whole essay and the only allusion that she uses is Xanadu. Joan Didion writes, nobody lives at Xanadu meaning nobody lives in the paradise.
Allusion is a brief and indirect reference to a person, place, thing or idea of historical, cultural, literary or political significance. It does not tell in detail the thing, idea, place or person.
Xanadu is a mitical place. It is located in the north of Shangri La that was introduced in 1933 in the fictional novel Lost Horizon by author James Hilton
2.- The symbol that Joan Didion uses is that nobody lives at Xanadu that it is paradise on earth for her because New York was appealing to the author even though she was not well paid and didn't have the best food on the table.
