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>
Answer:
The correct punctuation is as follow:
Explanation:
- After eating lunch at the cafeteria, Ben went to the gym to have a swim. You need to place a comma after the word cafeteria to separate these two sentences.
- Due to the damage caused by the storm, the ferry will not be running today. Again, a comma is needed here to separate the two sentences.
- The company’s training session, which was due to take place on Tuesday, has been postponed. Here, you need to put the appositive (that additional information about the training session), in between commas, or you can put it in parentheses to separate it from the rest of the sentence.
- If you are going to college this autumn, don’t forget to sign up for a discount card. Since the dependent clause is found at the beginning of the sentence (If you are going to college this autumn), you need to put a comma after it, like in sentence 1.
