Answer: The right answer is the A) Rich imagery that appeals to the readers’ senses.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that by using a descriptive language—pavement <em>sparkling with sunlight</em>, pigeons <em>fluttering off the curb </em>and nodding over <em>a profusion of bread crumbs</em>—the poet Billy Collins is trying to appeal to the reader's senses (sound, sight, and even smell) with the goal of recreating the scene in a clear and persuasive way. The speaker is listening to music and he is in good spirits, and he wants to share his upbeat mood with the reader.

Vesna [10]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The complete question is in the attached image.

Answer:

The first option is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The best way to shorten and combine phrases is to keep the meaning of the original text and to exclude phrases that present additional information, but that do not necessarily contribute to the main meaning of the message. In other words, we can affirm that, in order to shorten a text, it is necessary to keep the main meaning well established. For this reason, we can consider the first option as the correct option.
