story?
O
Like Cinderella on her way to the prince's ball, Anna was perfect in every detail.
Her hair was like the darkest night.
Her eyes danced with excitement as she descended the staircase.
Her voice was a calming melody of gentle music.



Answer :

Explanation:   The statement that is an allusion and will emphasize the image of the lovely character in Anthony’s story is: “Like Cinderella on her way to the prince’s ball, Anna was perfect in every detail.”

This sentence is an allusion because it references Cinderella, a well-known character from fairy tales, to describe Anna’s perfection. This comparison not only emphasizes Anna’s beauty but also suggests a sense of magic and enchantment associated with her character, much like Cinderella. The other statements are similes and metaphors, but they do not make a direct reference to a well-known story, character, or event, so they are not considered allusions.
