There are a lot of literary allusions throughout the story, including the names of their pets. The cat was named Marlowe after Christopher Marlowe. and the two birds were named after:
a.
William Shakespeare
c.
Homer
b.
Helen of Troy
d.
John Keats

the sentence does not violate the phrase structure second rule (introduced by noam chomsky) because noun phrases consist of a determiner such as a, the or every, and a noun. in the sentence, the noun phrase the cake includes a determiner (the) and a noun (cake).

on the other hand, the first rule indicates that a sentence encloses a noun phrase, followed by a verb phrase. the example sentence can be analysed as follows:

john (n) + ate (v) + the (det) + cake (n).
