For always in literature, imagery plays a huge role in so many aspects. For instance, it sets the atmosphere, tone, mood, which are all necessary to enable the reader to truly immerse himself/herself in the story. It also establishes characterization (inside and outside). Simply put, imagery builds/paints the story in your mind so that you do not just see it, but you hear it, smell it, taste it, and feel it.
ANSWER:
The sponge is now dirty.
This is as some of the water and filth from the ground would have transferred onto the sponge. However, not all of the water and filth from the ground would have been transferred onto the sponge meaning that the floor wouldn't be clean. This is as the sponge is far smaller in size comparatively to the floor. As well as this, the sponge was only dropped on part of the floor it wasn't used to scrub the whole floor clean. It also isn't large enough to have the capacity to absorb all the water and filth on the entire surface of the floor.
Hope this helps! :)
Have a lovely day! <3
