Question 76781 • KS-English Language Arts 9 CR

Which details help the reader visualize the environment? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
“The man flung a look back along the way he had come.”
B
“The Yukon lay a mile wide and hidden under three feet of ice.”
C
“On top of this ice were as many feet of snow.”
D
“It was all pure white, rolling in gentle undulations.”
E
“save for a dark hairline that curved and twisted from around the spruce-covered island to the south”

Explanation

Details that describe the Yukon, the snow, and the landscape help the reader picture the environment. The ice’s depth, the snow covering it, the rolling white terrain, and the dark curved line near the spruce-covered island all provide visual information. Choice A describes the man’s action rather than the environment.
