The large yellow-gold leaves sifted slowly down from the tall poplars. And the leaves fell like big soft red raindrops from low
bushy-topped sourwoods to ferny ground. Dark frostbitten oak leaves slithered down among the lacework of tree branches to the leaf-carpeted ground. Two of these oak leaves dropped onto Grace's ripe-wheat-colored hair. And a big yellow-gold poplar leaf fell and stuck to my shirt. They were a little damp, for they fell from a canopy of leaves where there was no sun. from "The Slip-Over Sweater" by Jesse Stuart
What type of paragraph structure does the example above illustrate?
chronological order
topic sentence--detail sentences
spatial order
Chronological order presents the event in progressive order and uses words that emphasize and demonstrate that sequence.
Topic sentence represents the main idea of any work and it is often followed by detail sentences which reinforce the main idea.
Spatial order give a detail description of the things and events through their location as they occur.
Taking all of these descriptions in consideration the correct answer is Spatial order, each and every one of the elements in this piece of work is not only described to detail but placed in a specific location in the scene.
