It is quite easy to distinguish the correct answer, as I think that the abstract concept should explain but not support mental picture, and the only option which follows this rule is the last one : <span>d. (rumors) whispers of doubt filled the empty halls like the reek of rotten eggs. The concept and a mental picture are linked and explain each other, whereas the other option just contain synonims in the brackets.</span>

butalik [34]

Answer:

"steam rising from a coffee mug"

"smoke rising from campfire"
