The article "Clemente´s Impact Wanes in Puerto Rico 40 Years after his Death" was first written and published by Jorge L. Ortiz on December 27th, 2012 as a memorial after several years since the death of baseball major league player, Roberto Clemente, also a major star of Puerto Rico. Clemente died in 1972 during a plane crash when he was trying to take humanitarian relief supplies to Nicaragua, after an earthquake that devastated the country. The plane that took off from the island overloaded with these supplies, ended up crashing into the Atlantic and Clemente´s body was never found. The death of this super star impacted a lot of Puerto Rican´s because of how important and famous he became, the first Puerto Rican, in fact, to have reached the Hall of Fame. Ortiz, in this article, remembers these events and how the affected the people of his land, comparing it to the impact the death of JFK had on the United States. The event which takes place 3 months before the terrible accident, and some time before the New Year´s Eve Party that Ortiz was attending when Clemente died, was that Clemente pursued and accomplished his 3.000th hit, during his 1972 season with the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Explain how the imagery contributes to a particular narrative element?
pogonyaev
Imagery can make something abstract, like an emotion or theory, seem more concrete and tangible to the reader. By using imagery, writers can evoke the feeling they want to talk about in their readers...and by making their readers feel, writers can also help readers connect to the messages in their work.
