The answer is C: (Rumors) Whispers of doubt filled the empty halls like the reek of rotten eggs.

A mental picture is a representation of the world outside the mind, inside someone´s mind. That is to say, it is an image of the physical world as it is experienced by a subject in reality. Although abstract concepts are, by definition, devoid of specific representations, they can easily be translated into mental pictures that convey their sense and meaning. In the answer above, rumors are linked, through metaphor, to whispers and the smell of rotten eggs, which is a powerful image to represent rumors.

Catie is writing a research paper about Romeo and Juliet. In one source, she finds a quotation: "Romeo and Juliet seems to be th
Shtirlitz [24]

The correct answer is A. She should paraphrase it, because its exact wording is not creative or unique. 

In research papers, quotations should be used very sparingly, and only used when a source contains a creative or unique point that can add a nice touch if added to a research paper. The sentence, "Romeo and Juliet seems to be the most popular of Shakespeare's plays" is neither creative nor unique, which is why Catie is better off paraphrasing it in her report rather than directly quoting it.
