The allusion is in the sentence "...by taking a Jeffersonian approach to spending."
I have heard of velibs. They are the cheapest ride in Paris. I do know a similar concept in my country. What I learned is that these rides are very important for travel and transportation. They are also very important for cargo. Yep that's my country, they use this concept as cargo.
The compound noun in the sentence is A. life cycles.
<u>A compound noun is a word formed by two or more words</u>. The first one generally indicates the type of object/person; in other words, it classifies the object or person presented in the second word. Furthermore, compound nouns have a different meaning than the meaning of the two words taken separately.
In this sentence,<u> "life cycles" is a compound noun because it has been formed with the words "life" and "cycles", which are also two nouns.</u> "Life", in this case, is indicating the kind of cycle that the sentence is referring to. In that way,<u> the compound noun "life cycles", defined as the series of stages that a living organism goes through during its whole life, does not have the same meaning than the words "life" and "cycles" taken alone</u>.
