Read the paragraph from Yasmin’s narrative. I took a long, lingering look at the tremendous beauty that surrounded me. Nature abounded as far as the eye could see, and the only sounds to be heard were the peaceful murmurs of that which existed in the wilderness. As I sat there, my tent and sleeping bag the only signs of civilization for miles, my heart swelled with relief that I had decided to take this weekend camping trip. I could feel every muscle in my body gradually relaxing with every sight, every sound, every smell within this untouched slice of tranquility. Which narrative element would most effectively increase the reader’s understanding of the tranquility Yasmin describes? additional information about why Yasmin chose to camp at that specific campsite more specific descriptions of the sights, sounds, and smells mentioned by Yasmin background information about Yasmin’s previous camping experiences and expertise examples of other instances in Yasmin’s life when she felt so peaceful and relaxed

The correct answer is More specific descriptions of the sights, sounds, and smells mentioned by Yasmin

Explanation:

One of the most effective literary devices that allow readers to imagine or visualize elements is the use of descriptive details, especially those involving senses (sensory details). These are useful in writing to describe general elements such as settings but also specific elements such as the feelings or emotions of characters. In the text presented, the main feeling the author wants to emphasize is the tranquility a specific place causes in the main character Yasmin, and this can be depicted by adding more descriptive details that involve senses such as details about the sounds or smells because these can be easily imagined or experienced by the reader.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
