Question 2 • SC-English 3 Honors

What effects does the use of few adjectives have on the scene? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
It slows down the narration by interrupting the action.
B
It allows the reader to fill in details from their own experience.
C
It makes the few adjectives used more vivid and vigorous.
D
It presents a powerful image without interrupting the narration.
E
It makes the narrator seem powerless.

Explanation

Using few adjectives leaves some details unstated, so readers can imagine them using their own experience. Because the description is selective, the adjectives that do appear can feel especially vivid and vigorous. This creates a strong image without slowing the narration or interrupting the action.
