An allusion is when an author puts a reference in a work (in my experience, a work of fiction) to another work, a well known story, a historical event, or something like that. Usually, they <span>call it to mind without mentioning it explicitly, or it is an indirect or passing reference.</span>

Answer B

Correct. In the first sentence of the third paragraph, the author makes the claim that “merriment” (amusement) can be produced only by “a sudden impression,” that is, a surprise. In the second sentence of the paragraph, the author advances that claim by using the clause “which is expected” to assert that jests (witty remarks) lacking such an element of surprise (because the audience is expecting them) lose much of their humor and are thus effectively “already destroyed.”
