Which sentence from the passage is an example of allusion?

English
1 answer:
Inessa [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: D.  Ginny had cut the Gordian knot by applying a formula that she had learned in  Mrs. Stark's class.

Explanation:

An allusion refers to the use of a word or phrase that has a certain meaning or implication to explain a situation. For instance:<em> ''our star runner is the Flash''</em>. The implication here is that the star runner is really fast because the Flash is really fast as well.

The allusion above is the Gordian knot which was known to be so hard to untie that only Alexander succeeded and he did so by cutting it open. The sentence is therefore describing a very difficult problem that Ginny solved.

Select the correct usage of in-text citation in APA style. a. American's attitudes toward wilderness, like the wild lands themse
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

b. American's attitudes toward wilderness, like the wild lands themselves, are constantly changing (Nash, 2014).

Explanation:

This is the correct in-text citation if you are using APA style. APA establishes that, for an in-text citation, the author and the year of publication need to be mentioned. For the name of the author, we would only include his last name. The year would be presented in the 'YYYY' format, and the two pieces of information would be separated by a comma. If the author's name was already mentioned previously with the quote, then we can omit this piece of information.
