Answer: B) sensory details.

Explanation: Sensory details include sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste. Writers employ the five senses to engage a reader's interest. In the given excerpt from "The Lottery" we can see an example of the use of sensory details in phrases like "selecting the smoothest and roundest stones" which convey the senses of touch (smoothest) and sight (roundest). So the correct answer is option B.
