Question

what does the allusion in this text suggest? when tanvi claimed she had loaded the dishwasher before turning on dancing with the stars, her mother replied, \your nose is growing!\ tanvi was lying. tanvi was goofy.

Explanation:

The allusion "Your nose is growing" refers to Pinocchio, whose nose grows when he lies. So the mother's reply suggests Tanvi was lying, not that she was goofy (which means silly in a playful way, not related to the allusion).

Answer:

Tanvi was lying.
