Question

read the source of the allusion. in the early nineteenth century, factories were replacing the jobs of craftsmen. some of these craftsmen banded together to destroy the new machinery; those who did so were called luddites. what is the meaning of the allusion in the sentence below? brenna thinks mr. pratt is a luddite because he doesnt own a cell phone. a person without much money a person opposed to new technology a person who is hard to reach

Explanation:

The source says Luddites were craftsmen who destroyed new machinery (new technology) as factories replaced their jobs. In the sentence, Mr. Pratt doesn't own a cell phone (a new technology), so Brenna thinks he's a Luddite, meaning someone opposed to new technology. The other options: "a person without much money" doesn't relate to technology, and "a person who is hard to reach" is about accessibility, not technology opposition.

Answer:

a person opposed to new technology
