d) Both A and C

Explanation:

Shea Stutler uses both sensory details, interesting adjectives (A) and figurative language and vivid verbs (C) in this essay.

Here are some examples.

Sensory details: a blur of color; the warm ... scent of popcorn; a cacophony; once airborne, they were a soaring sight to behold; I felt the rush of wind on my face; the musky scent of cologne; the tactile sense had kicked in: punching and shoving of young lions..., bodies brushing by each other, and the gentle touch of hand on arm.

Interesting adjectives: dusty, cobwebbed memories; nostalgic scent; exuberant teenagers; skinny ... benches; the musky scent; a statuesque blonde.

Figurative language: a grace not unlike the albatross (simile and litotes, i.e. using double negatives to make a positive statement, or in this case, to make a comparison); a swirl of communication (metaphor); like kids playing dress up in their parents' clothes (simile); young lions, young ladies (alliteration).

Vivid verbs: swaggered, stumbled, flocked, behold, was mesmerized.

1. the details that would clarify the authors purpose for writing would be after the "haley collected used soccer jersey and sent them to guatemalan children." part, he would say, "and you can also donate today to save ". so far in the text, you can see no such thing. if, near the end the author persuades you to donate to guatemalans, then you know that the author's reason to write is to persuade you.

2. what details would make the text more engaging is to see the guatemalan children's reaction to getting free jerseys.

3. the details that convey the author's attitude would be an opinion by the author, for example, if he said, "haley was a very nice girl " or, you can find the attitude by finding parts of haley's personality that he highlights. you can strengthen your tones by using more descriptive words, and simplify long sentences as much as you can.

you're welcome ; p
