Answer:

Matilda compared her daddy to Shakespeare in a way that <em>he was the opposite of him.</em> His dad always said <em>having a good strong hair meant having a good strong brain underneath,</em> but Shakespeare was bald which meant <em>his dad didn't have a good strong brain underneath.</em>

Explanation:

The question above refers to the Chapter entitled, "The Platinum-Blond Man" of the Matilda book.

At this time, Matilda thought that his father deserved a <em>"severe form of punishment" </em>after she was called a<em> cheat </em>and a <em>liar </em>by his father just because she was able to answer an arithmetic problem. Her revenge happened after they had a conversation about his dad's hair. She compared it <em>sarcastically </em>to that of Shakespeare.

The answer is B, because the statement has a positive tone, saying that he is good at sports. Saying basketball was his achilles heel is an allusion because, an allusion refers to a place, person, or something that has happened. Achilles was a mythological figure who's only weakness was in his heel. So the statement is saying basketball is his weakness. <span>
