D. Responded with a squeaky chirp.
Explanation:
The detail "responded with a squeaky chirp" from the passage could be used as an example in a paragraph about imagery. Imagery is a literary device in which figurative language is used in order to represent ideas, objects and actions that appeal to the reader's senses.
In the sentence "responded with a squeaky chirp" the author uses imagery to create in the reader a visual image of the situation, by appealing to the sense of hearing, thanks to the words "squeaky" and "chirp".

yuradex [85]
First, you need to know what a gerund is. It refers to a word form that looks like a verb + ing. So here, the gerund phrase is <em>walking in the deep snow. </em>Also, you need to know that gerund is practically a noun in a sentence, meaning that it can function as either a subject or an object of a sentence. Here, the correct answer is the subject. 
If you are unsure, you can replace the phrase with a pronoun He, for example: He made me feel... And you will know it is a subject, because the object would be Him.
