Explanation
Descriptions that hold a reader’s interest often include vivid details that help the reader picture or sense a scene. B describes the chessboard as having neat squares and a shiny surface, while E includes sensory details such as the sun’s warmth and a green, flowery park. The other sentences mainly report actions or feelings without the same level of vivid description.
