Incident details: I witnessed an incident that happened yesterday morning in front of my class. I saw a crowd gathered around and I went to have a closer look and know what the commotion was all about.

Behold, it was Sandra Gabriel who happens to be my classmate that was assaulting a frail-looking male junior student and taunting him. I tried to step in and stop the assault but because of the thickness of the crowd, I was unable to, and unfortunately, the crowd was having fun and no one wanted to stop the madness. I was unable to get the name of the junior student that was assaulted.

Read the following excerpt from "Notes of a Native Son" by James Baldwin:
Reil [10]

Answer:

C. The author refers to the evil of Sodom and Gomorrah to suggest a  comparison to the contemporary city of New Orleans.

Explanation:

An allusion is a figure that is used to describe something without directly referring to it and explicitly saying what it is, but by using some different ideas, usually knowledgable to a wider audience.

That is why the author here refers to what he imagines in New Orleans as Sodom and Gomorrah. <u>He refers to the well known Biblical story about the cities where many vile people lived who did harm and sins, so God destroyed them at the end as a punishment for their outrageous behavior.</u>

<u>By alluding to these Biblical places and stories, the author is trying to say us all the worst possible happenings were present to see in New Orleans, and still are, as he is still "to this day" making that mental connection. </u>
