Answer:

C). Swimming provides a sense of fulfillment.

Explanation:

Imagery is one of the most commonly employed devices by the authors to provide vivid description that assists the readers to visualize the given content and understand it more comprehensively.

As per the question, the implicit meaning of the images employed would most likely be displayed through option C as it appropriately demonstrates that 'swimming proposes a sense of fulfillment'. <em>The use of words like 'swivel', 'splash', 'clear', 'blue', 'calm', etc. help offer descriptive details that propose the idea that swimming offers a feeling of contentment and gratification(also reflected by the words like 'relaxed', 'free', etc.).</em> Thus, <u>option C</u> is the correct answer.

Considering the time period which Edwards delivers the sermon, how might his audience have reacted to his words?
Kruka [31]
His audience was mostly puritan as was the case in the 18th century. His audience was probably scared mindless because his sermons usually included scary and vivid description of suffering, hell, sins, the devil, which was all supposed to scare you into being a better christian.

LekaFEV [45]

In "The Soul Selects her own Society", Dickinson's childhood can be categorized as (A) exclusionary.

The narrator speaks about only letting one individual into her soul and shutting out everybody else. She points out that she won't even let in the loftiest individuals if it does not suit her.
