The stray cat stalked down the street. Her walk was proud--she barely flinched when a car on the corner backfired. She reached the end of the street and made one majestic leap to the top of an open trash can, where, with great dignity, she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra. Which detail from the text contains an allusion?

D. ...she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra.

Explanation:

The detail from the text that contains an allusion is ''...she settled over a meal of broken bones, a back alley Cleopatra''

Allusion is known to be a brief and indirect reference to a person, thing, place or idea of historical significance. In allusion, it does not describe in detail the reference (i.e the person or thing to which it refers). It actually passes a comment. Then the writer actually expects the reader to understand the allusion and grasp its importance as used in a text.

In the above answer, the author makes allusion to the meal of broken bones referring it to ''a back alley Cleopatra''. Therefore, Option D is correct answer.

b. vast setting

an epic is a poem of heroic proportions; it can't be short or focus on simple daily life event. it cannot be written with a casual tone as it narrates some heroic deeds of legendary figures.
