B. "The stray cat stalked down the street."

D. "... she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra."
Answer:
The detail that contains an allusion is:
D. "... she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra."
Explanation:
As is explained in the instructions, an allusion is a reference to a famous character or person, one whose story - true or fictional - is well known.
<u>In the passage we are analyzing here, the allusion takes place when the author mentions Cleopatra, a famous queen from Ancient Egypt. By comparing the cat to Cleopatra, the narrator is attributing characteristics of the queen to the animal - dignity, pride, beauty, elegance. </u>The allusion makes is possible for the author to not have to say those words. Since everyone knows who Cleopatra was and what traits and behaviors she was famous for, by simply alluding to her, the author conveys a deeper description.

Virtue is the act of doing that which is beautiful and good. It takes a wise person to do that which is beautiful and good. Therefore, virtue is wisdom.
