Answer:

B) a brief, incomplete view or look is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to a definition provided by Cambridge Dictionary, glimpse means to "see something or someone for a very short time or only part"; since letters C and D have words with the opposite feeling (such as "absorbing" and "extended"), they are incorrect. In letter A, we can find the word <em>gaze</em>, which means to look something steadily, discarding this option too. Letter B is correct because it fits with the definition as "brief" or "incomplete" are used to synthesize the idea provided by Cambridge Dictionary.

alexira [117]

Answer:

D. ...she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra.

Explanation:

The detail from the text that contains an allusion is ''...she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra''

Allusion is known to be a brief and indirect reference to a person, thing, place or idea of historical significance. In allusion, it does not describe in detail the reference (i.e the person or thing to which it refers). It actually passes a comment. Then the writer actually expects the reader to understand the allusion and grasp its importance as used in a text.

In the above answer, the author makes allusion to the meal of broken bones referring it to ''a back alley Cleopatra''. Therefore, Option D is correct answer.
