Answer:

A. Her rise to the championship is a Cinderella story of triumph.

Explanation:

Allusion simply means bringing something to mind or referencing it without mentioning it explicitly.

The answer that represents allusion is the first option (Option A) because it alluded the triumph story of Cinderella to her rise to triumph.

Cinderella is a children's cartoon that talks about the rise to riches and royalty of a poor mistreated orphan.

How can somebody win the popular vote but lose the electoral vote?
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Yes it is possible

Explanation:

So you can win the popular vote as in the one we can all vote in. So most Americans in this case will like you. However the electoral is like the "elite and experienced politicians" who vote. They made this to prevent a dumb majority. You can argue whether this is a dumb thing because it could be. But it pretty much states that we do not trust what most Americans think. We only trust a few. These few can still be influenced by the majority though.
