Which excerpt taken from the poem “birmingham sunday” by richard fariña is an example of sensory language? a) “clouds they were grey” b) “she asked for a blessing" c) “her prayers and her feelings" d) “the men in the forest”

The correct answer is A.

Sensory language uses details from the five senses to add color and depth to writing.

The excerpt "The clouds were gray", taken by "Birminham Sunday" by Richard Fariña provides an image that helps the reader see in his mind the scenario in which the action on the poem is taking place.

B is wrong because it present only an action and C and D are wrong because they are merely statements.

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…

(sorry couldn’t show the fonts in this comment field)

too much?

the answer is b. i read this story before.
