Evaluate the following descriptive paragraph. how well does it appeal to the reader's senses? what is the overall effect?

"about 15 miles below monterey, on the wild coast, the torres family had their farm, a few sloping acres above a cliff that dropped to the brown reefs and to the hissing white waters of the ocean. behind the farm the stone mountains stood up against the sky. the farm buildings huddled like the clinging aphids on the mountain skirts, crouched low to the ground as though the wind might blow them into the sea. the little shack, the rattling, rotting barn were gray-bitten with sea salt, beaten by the damp wind until they had taken on the color of the granite hills. two horses, a red cow and a red calf, half a dozen pigs and a flock of lean, multi-colored chickens stocked the place. a little corn was raised on the sterile slope, and it grew short and thick under the wind, and all the cobs formed on the landward sides of the stalks."

This paragraph greatly appeals to the readers' senses. It uses descriptions that make the setting vivid and realistic. The detailed way in which the location is described allows the readers to imagine it extremely well, making the story more realistic and therefore making it more interesting for them too. The overall effect is one of vividness due to the rich imagery.

answer: b. grete might have remained as shy and immature as she was at the beginning of the story.

one of the most interesting characteristics of gregor's metamorphosis is that, although he is the only character who has physically changed, it is this same change which triggered a transformation in the rest of his family.
