Complex Sentence consists of 1 independent clause and 1 dependent clause.

As she was unable to swim- dependent clause (it can't be a sentence on its own)

A. Recall a familiar text.

An allusion is a reference to another published work. In this case, the allusion is to the Pledge of Allegiance.

For readers who know the Pledge of Allegiance this may spark in them a sense of patriotism as they may then recite the entire pledge. The reader uses this allusion to further the point about patriotism as a routine taught in schools.
