Shadows stretched across the grass as evening approached, and the activity at the park waned. All that remained was a pair of fi

shermen, hats low and rods high, sitting on the pond’s embankment. A lone dog walker strolled toward home, and a flock of geese fluttered nervously as she passed. A few dappled rays of sun still reached through the trees, and dandelion spores danced in their light. Soon, the only sounds were the steady cries of crickets and the occasional splash-and-tug of a successful fisherman.
What do the descriptive details reveal?

the popularity of the park
the fishermen’s daily routine
the dog walker’s thoughts
the peacefulness of the park

Answer:

The descriptive details reveal:

D. the peacefulness of the park

Explanation:

The author of this passage was able to, very skillfully, paint a picture in our minds. Because of the descriptive details used, we can now vividly imagine a peaceful park. Just a couple of fishermen, a lone dog walking by, the setting sun and the flowers, all those elements contribute to the aura of tranquility. There is not much activity - almost none at all. It is the end of the day, that lazy moment when the world seems to be going to sleep. The use of the following words helps convey such peacefulness: waned; strolled; danced; crickets; etc.
