Question

1. what is an allusion?

a type of wordplay using similar sounds
two lines that rhyme to enhance meaning
a reference to something or someone famous
words that involve one of the five senses

Explanation:

• "A type of wordplay using similar sounds" describes a pun (specifically homophonic wordplay), not an allusion.
• "Two lines that rhyme to enhance meaning" refers to a couplet, not an allusion.
• "A reference to something or someone famous" matches the definition of an allusion, as allusions are indirect references to well - known people, events, or works.
• "Words that involve one of the five senses" describes imagery (sensory imagery), not an allusion.
