Which statement best explains how effectively the passage uses vivid
description?
Jenna peeked at the clock. The second hand slid around the numbers
as if it were surfing Time. Before she realized it, Time had caught a
wave at lunch and ridden it all the way to three o'clock. Now the last
bell was ringing, and the moment Jenna had been waiting for all day
was about to happen. She heard moans of disappointment and
squeals of joy begin to echo through the drama department hallway.
Jenna waited for the crowd to disperse, and then she crept up to the
Drama Club bulletin board. Her eyes scanned the cast list in reverse
order, from bottom to top. With each name not matching her own, her
heart pounded harder. Finally, there it was: her name at the top of the
page. She was finally going to be the star.
A. The vivid description is not effective, because it creates a laid-
back tone, when Jenna's feelings of anticipation call for an
energetic tone.
B. The vivid description is effective, because it appeals to the sense
of smell as well as the senses of sight and hearing.
C. The vivid description is not effective, because the bland and
ordinary words detract from the importance of the events in the
story.
D. The vivid description is effective, because the passage uses
powerful images to show Jenna's awareness of time.
