Creating sensory images is a strategy readers use to think more deeply about a text. It is when a reader combines their schema and the information in the text to create an image in their mind. This image can represent all of the five senses (visual, smell, taste, sound, touch or feeling).
Sensory imagery is any description that involves one or more of the five senses -- touch, sight, taste, smell and sound. Poetry that is rich in sensory detail helps the reader perfectly envision the scene the poet is describing.
Essentially, there are five types of imagery, each corresponding to one of our senses: visual, auditory, kinesthetic olfactory (smell), and gustatory(taste). The key to good imagery is engaging all five senses.

Answer:
The main crisis and situation of this story was when Jerry decides he wants to be able to swim through the tunnel with the other boys, but he doesn't know if he can make it. After he shows the boys he has the guts to jump off the rock, he wants to prove that he is man enough to swim through the tunnel in the rock. Although, the boys cannot actually communicate with Jerry, he has a sort of mind set that he needs to accomplish this feat in order to maintain his pride. Jerry knew at first, that he would not be able to swim throughout the tunnel without taking a breath of air, so he did exercises that resolved his problem. Jerry convinced his mother to buy him goggles, which he needed to see where the tunnel begins. On the day before Jerry and his mother were leaving for home, Jerry decided that it was the time to show what he was made of, and swim through the tunnel. He prepared himself, and dived. At first he felt like an "inflated balloon", he could hold his breath forever, but as the tunnel became darker and eerie, he started to panic and lose his control. Jerry kept swimming and counting the seconds, until he came to a point with a darkness up ahead and no more oxygen left in his system. He thought he was going to die. Finally, Jerry saw a light in the distance, and he swam to the surface. Although his nose was bleeding, and he was in extreme pain, Jerry has proved to himself what he was capable of.
Explanation: I know this answer is pretty long but it gives a bit more detail then an actual summary
The details that hint this story takes place a long time ago are:
"shingled one- and two-room houses clamped themselves to the rocks like oysters";
"the chopping block one man was using to split his cordwood".
This story takes place at a fishing village, so many of the elements mentioned in the excerpt are still commonly seen at similar places. What identifies the story as taking place long ago are the architectural style of houses and the man chopping wood.
Shingled houses first appeared in the early 1880's. They were a combination of Colonial American and British architectures.
As for the man chopping wood, it was a scene most ordinarily seen in the past. Although some people in some places might still do it - be it because they keep a fireplace or a wood-burning stove -, it is not as common nowadays.
