Answer:

As she left the concert hall, Shonda was as bright as the sun because her recital was a brilliant success; (<u><em>Mozart could not have played the piece better.</em></u>)

Explanation:

An allusion is a figure of speech that provides a brief and indirect reference to something (like a phrase, a place or an idea) or to someone that is commonly known and has significance in our society. The sentence “Mozart could not have played the piece better” is an example of an allusion because it makes a brief reference to Mozart, one of the greatest -if not the greatest- musician of the classical era.

Essay topic about breaking the code of silence​
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Breaking the code of silence. I opened my eyes for the very first time that day. I was immediately blinded by striking bright, harsh, and electrified light. Ifeltaweird Sensation. It was fair to say that I've never experienced a feeling like this in my entire life! I could hear the faint tick-tock of a clock. Silence had been broken. I felt unusually cold. It was as if someone had pulled my body out of a warm and cozy tent in the Arabian Desert and thrown me into the ice-cold and dangerous place that is the North Pole. The sudden change in temperature was so drastic that I was actually struggling to breathe. Despite this, I've never felt more alive before! Silence had remained broken. I felt liquid dripping from my body. This liquid was definitely not water. It felt thick, slimy, and had a tingling sensation. I tried to get a closer look. I saw red. The liquid was blood! I was covered in blood! All of a sudden, a cloth was thrown over me and the blood was wiped away. I was then covered in a thick velvet blanket. It was as if I was back in my tent in the Arabian Desert. The silence was restored. Except it wasn't.Something was different. I could still hear the faint tick tock of a clock in the distance. Silence remained broken. As my eyes adjusted to the new environment, I was able to hear something much louder than the took off the clock. I could hear someone crying very loudly. tears of Joy I thought? No! I listened closely. These were not tears of Joy. The person crying was me! That was weird. I didn't think that I had anything to cry about, so why was I crying? I felt extremely tired, so I tried to close my eyes. I'll figure everything out when I wake up. Silence had been restored. For a few seconds, I closed my eyes and I had the best sleep since I was born. This was until I was rudely woken up by lots of loud screams from different people the loudest was from a woman I had never seen before. It was hard to hear what she was saying, but it sounded like: “please, there must be something you can do!” At this moment multiple people in weird blue coats stormed into the room. Silence had been broken. There was a sense of urgency in the room. There were frantic moments as the blue-coats tried to solve the problem. A problem that I did not understand. I felt hands grab me and the shouting intensified. At that moment it felt as if time had slowed down.

Elena L [17]

Answer:

D. to persuade the General Assembly that the UDHR has wide support

Explanation:

When Roosevelt talks about the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, she says that 58 countries support the UDHR when she says "58 states have found such a large measure of agreement in the complex field of human rights". The back round information says states means countries. We can eliminate B and C because this speech uses emotional language like "must" or "so many" that indicates that she is persuading, not informing or entertaining.
