Answer:

literary allusion

Explanation:

An allusion is a literary device used to briefly or indirectly give reference to a person, place, or thing or something that is of historical, political, or literary significance. Just with the mention of this reference the reader have an idea of what the author is trying to tell about.

For instance, If someone is saying, "He's such a Scrooge", that means he is telling that the person resembles "Scrooge", the character of Dickens' Christmas Carol is.

In the same manner, if a poet of another poem is mentioning "The Waste Land" in his poem, then he is using "Literary Allusion", as he is giving reference of a literary work.

Answer:

the first option

Explanation:

Literary allusion is an illuminating or significant  reference in a text to another well known text. If a poem made some references to the piece of poetry of T.S. Eliot, we could say that we are before a literary allusion. The reference tends to imply that the reader of the poem is acquainted with the comparison or the reference, otherwise the reference would be pointless. For this reason the alluded text needs to be well known by most readers. The literary allusions used to be biblical for instance

What can you infer about Sergei's character based on the way he uses his first two wishes?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Sergei uses his first two wishes to wish for 1) to cure the growing cancer in his sister's lungs and 2) to cure 'Sveta's  boy' (his own son) who has an ailment which the doctors think will not allow him to mentally develop beyond his age of three years. We can infer from these wishes that Sergei is a kind-hearted, humble individual who is later hardened in life by his surrounding situations, i.e. living in Russia, as the son of a Zionist etc. We know that of the three wishes that Sergei could ever be granted by the magic goldfish, he uses the first two to help those around him, with little regard for his own self or his personal aspirations.

Describe an early development in the plot of the legend of the sleepy hollow
hammer [34]
I did play for theater and I roughly remember the plot but Ichabod Crane was made fun of often and looked on by others as “weird”. He was a school teacher trying to impress a pretty woman in the town. He was very afraid although he acted tough. He was merely afraid of his own footsteps at times. I think mostly explaining his character is good because that it basically the beginning plot haha
