Which of the following sentences most clearly uses allusion?

1 answer:

3 0

The answer is D. When it comes to giving people good advice, Jon is a regular Yoda. Allusion is when you say something in a passing fashion without actually making direct reference to it (a person, place, or thing.) Since you are calling Jon a 'regular Yoda' you are comparing him and making a sort of passing reference, but are not speaking directly about Yoda himself. So this is Allusion. Another example of an allusive sentence would be: When my uncle won the lottery he acted like a total Scrooge.

katovenus [111]

Answer:

B). "He came to know that men were more just... and women more kindly."

Explanation:

The line 'He came...kindly' most likely alters the prediction that White Fang will learn to admire or appreciate the humans as it displays that he got to know about the cruel and inhumane side of the humans. The other options suggests that 'he came to know about the ways of man-aniimals and their godliness , he began to learn their ways or wishes and the power they displayed to enforce that wish and thus, he felt he must show obedience to them.' Thus, option B is the correct answer.

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The term "jungle girl" refers to the girl's personality as somebody who is active.

This term is a metaphor since it describes the African-American girl (Lucille Clifton) in the poem as a "jungle girl" although she is not from the jungle. This simply refers to her "active nature."

Explanation:

Lucille Clifton was an American poet who grew up in an African-American life. Most of her works, such as the poem "This morning," focuses on her life and family experience. The essence of the poem focuses on how Lucille finally found herself even in the midst of a different society. It also shows her appreciation for her own identity.
