Answer:
The details in this excerpt best help readers imagine what the scene <u>looks like.</u>
Explanation:
The given excerpt is from a collection of folktales <em>The People Could Fly: American Black Folktales</em><em> </em>written by Virginia Hamilton. This collection contains different animal tales, fairy tales, supernatural tales, and tales of the enslaved Africans.
The details in the excerpt help us imagine what the scene looks like. We see white men (buckras), different animals (a deer, hounds, an alligator), what they are doing, what the surroundings are like (the broom-grass field, the river, the bluff above the river). There are no details telling us what the scene sounds, smell, or feels like.
Thus, the correct option is option B.
