Identify which of the following sentences is NOT an allusion.

Question

A. I really fell down the rabbit hole while researching my essay.
B. Pizza kis my kryptonite
C. He was as hungry as a horse
D. Sadie's backyard was a real Eden

Answer 1

The sentence that is NOT an allusion is:

C. He was as hungry as a horse.

This is a simile comparing someone's hunger to that of a horse, but it does not reference a specific cultural, historical, or literary context like the other sentences do. The other options (A, B, and D) contain references to well-known works or concepts (Alice in Wonderland, Superman, and the biblical Garden of Eden, respectively).
