The setting must be described vividly to appeal to the blank​
sineoko [7]

Answer:

The setting must be described vividly to appeal to the <u><em>senses</em></u>.

Explanation:

The setting of any literary text refers to the geographical location or the time of the event. This means that the setting tells us about the place or the period of the events in the story.

While most literary devices help the readers in imagining the scenes and tell us about the events of the story, the setting is also one such device. It allows the readers to know the circumstances of the story, and where they happened.

Thus, the setting must be vividly described to appeal to the readers' senses.
