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.

Learn from the past,live in the present and create your future. plz explain
Naily [24]
The past is what has already happened. The "learn" part means to learn from your mistakes or achievements that have already happened to know what to do further in life.

The present is what is currently going on right now. The "live" part means to not be constantly worrying about what is to come later on in life; or to hold on to something that happened a while ago that might change how you are living now; this means to live what is currently happening, because that is what mostly matters.

The future is what is to come, or what will happen later on in life. The "create" means to prepare, or make plans for how you want your future to be. For example, to get ready for school, you might pack your luch or backpack to make sure you have everything for the day to come, which in this case, is the future.
