Question

which underlined phrase correctly identifies an allusion?

Sentence: As she left the concert hall, Shonda was as bright as the sun because her recital was a brilliant success; Mozart could not have play the piece better

Options:

A. As she left the concert hall

B. Shonda was as bright as the sun

C. her recital was as brilliant success

D. Mozart could not have play the piece better.

Answer 1

D. Mozart could not have played the piece better.
This is an allusion because it is a reference to (in this case), a famous person. They use it so you could fully understand what they were trying to get across.

The other options don't make a reference to anything, and B is a simile. 

Answer 2

It is D. all if these sentences make one big one. If you put them together the answer would be D.

Hope it helped ;)
