The correct response is: **by comparing, contrasting, or connecting people or events.**
Allusion in informational texts can help the author make connections to familiar concepts, events, or figures, thereby enhancing understanding and supporting the author's purpose. By referencing well-known elements, the author can provide context, enrich the narrative, and engage the reader more effectively.
