Question

Answer 1

Answer:

“Yet worst of all was the hand I had wiped with; it swelled to the size of Mickey Mouse’s after Donald Duck has bopped it with a hammer, and giganticblisters formed at the places where the fingers rubbed together.”

Explanation:

This extract expresses the swelling that is the most outstanding effect when touchhng poison ivy. The gigantic blisters is also a powerfull way of describing the effect of poison ivy.

This extract holds more power than the others because it is very descriptive, and somehow uses a sarcastic humor out of a really terrible experience.
