question 7
chocolate cake is my achilles heel.
this is an example of...
simile
allusion
alliteration
imagery

Explanation:

• Simile uses "like" or "as" to compare two things, which is not present here.
• Allusion refers to a well-known person, story, or event; "Achilles heel" references the Greek myth of Achilles, whose only weak spot was his heel, making this an allusion.
• Alliteration is the repetition of initial consonant sounds, which is not used here.
• Imagery uses descriptive language to appeal to the senses, which this phrase does not do.

Answer:

B. Allusion
