Explanation:
Imagery is a tool many writers use to help their readers visualize what is going on in the story. Using figurative and descriptive language, they describe things in a way that appeals to our five senses: sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. This makes the story more vivid, making it feel more real.
The phrase that is not an example of sensory imagery is phrase B. It simply tells us about an occurrence. It doesn't contain any details that could appeal to our senses, unlike other phrases. The first phrase helps us imagine withered crops dying because of the heat; the second describes how the narrator's father cursed, and the third makes us picture two young boys teasing each other and giggling on their way back home.
This is why option B is the correct one.
The answer is a. three major supporting details: eyes, face, and body
A should be the correct answer
It's a book describing life in the woods.
Remark
This is a good question to mull over. What exactly are you told? Multiple choice doesn't allow you to stray much from that point. The main point is that she was illuminated from the light coming from the open door. It doesn't suggest we go hunting for what that might mean.
However the commentary does (that's your second sheet). It defines dark. It defines light and it defines blind and bland.
With this set of comments in mind, let's choose an answer.
A is likely true. But is that what we are told? The commentary hints at it, but we have not gotten into the narrator's head. Not yet. We'll come back to this if we have to.
He's not confused. Not here anyway. I wouldn't pick B.
C Maybe. That's more hinted at in the commentary than it is in the single sentence we have to work with. I would say it is too big a leap. I wouldn't choose it.
D since this is mentioned in the commentary, it can't be eliminated.
E we have no hint of this, even if it is true, which it could be.
So what are we left with?
A and D with a small nod (very small) to C.
I think I'd go with A, but I wouldn't be the least surprised if it was one of the other 2. If you feel that D is the better answer, go with it. This is a coin tossing time.
