English

Answer:

An allusion is a literary device that provides greater context to the work at hand by referencing a previous work of art, a person, a place, an event, or a situation—usually of some social, political, or historical significance.

For example: You're acting like such a Scrooge! Alluding to Dickens's A Christmas Carol, this line means that the person is being miserly and selfish, just like the character Scrooge from the story.

Allusions are an important part of understanding literature because they give us a deeper understanding of an author's message. An author can skillfully draw upon allusions to give a story, poem, play, or other literary form more meaning or to provide clues about an author's message.

Jason runs 6 miles. Megan ran 1/4 mile farther. How many miles did Megan run
Luba_88 [7]
6+1/4= 6 1/4
Jason runs 6 miles, and Megan runs 1/4 of a mile more, therefore you must add 1/4 to 6 to get the correct answer.
6/1 + 1/4= 24/4 + 1/4= 25/4
Simplify 25/4 and get 6 1/4.

Can you plz proofread for me and tell me if there are any grammar mistakes or to fix something

I would suggest saying, "I would make an excellent president because...." (List your reasonings). For "Helpful," you don't need to capitalize the first letter. Make sure you add in an "and helpful," since you're finishing off the reasons.

Canadente is spelled incorrectly. It should be "Candidate."

Lastly, I would suggest saying "have had experience...."
