Read the lines from "How I Learned English.” It was an empty lot
Ringed by elms and fir and honeysuckle . . .
In the field, a blue sky above them
Tipped with cirrus.

The imagery in these lines helps readers picture

how colorful and beautiful the setting is.
how thick and green the lot’s grass is.
how windy and warm the weather is.
how dry and dusty the land is.

The imagery in these lines helps readers picture how colorful and beautiful the setting is.

Explanation:

•The setting is where a story took place.

•The lines describe the empty lot with plants. Along with the sky and clouds above.

It helps the reader picture the setting as colorful and beautiful.

I chose this other than the other choices because:

2nd choice: The speaker didn’t only focus on that.

3rd choice: There’s nothing the speaker said about the weather.

4th choice: again, there’s nothing about this in the lines.

Hope this helps!

the tax from your investment could be influenced by how long you decided to sell it. united states promotes keeping your investment for long term period. so, the tax rate for investments that you sell in less than one year is typically higher compared to investments that you sell in more than one year period.
