14.)
Which excerpt from James Joyce's "Araby" describes a setting?

B.) "Her image accompanied me even in places the most hostile to romance"

15.)
Which excerpt from Virginia Woolf's "A Room of One's Own" contains an allusion?
A.) "She looked at the stage door; she wanted to act, she said"
B.) "Could she even seek her dinner in a tavern or roam the streets at midnight?"
C.) "Chastity had then, it has even now, a religious importance..."
D.) "What Dean Inge says I will leave in peace"
Answers:
14.) C
15.) D
14 - yes.
15 - ? I would opt for C, the allusion being to religion. "What Dean Inge says..." is a citation, but unspecified, so could also be considered an allusion, I suppose. Again, go with what your text or lesson materials refer to.
