Question 7 • English Language Arts 12

Which sentence contains the best example of sensory details?

Answer
A
Worried she was going to be late, Jade ran up the school steps and down the hallway.
B
The cool water tickling my feet provided a welcome relief from the hot summer sun burning overhead.
C
When I saw my first fireflies, I was so thrilled that I stayed outside to watch until the last one disappeared.
D
The sight of the old tree brought him back to the day when he first climbed its branches.

Explanation

Sensory details describe what a person can feel, see, hear, smell, or taste. Choice B uses touch and temperature: the water “tickling” the speaker’s feet is cool, while the sun feels hot. The other choices focus more on actions, emotions, or memories than on vivid sensory details.
