Question 7 • GCSS Horizons Literature and Composition IV

Read the paragraph.Lauren gazed out her new living room window with a smile. Green filled her view. The unmown front yard was lush with thick grass through which wildflowers popped their colorful heads. The weathered fence was wound through with vines—morning glory, the real estate agent had said; the name perfectly captured Lauren's feelings as she sipped her coffee. As if to echo her joy, the birds struck up a raucous song just then.

Answer
A
flashback
B
foreshadowing
C
sensory details
D
character development

Explanation

The paragraph uses details that help readers picture and hear Lauren’s surroundings: lush grass, colorful wildflowers, vines, and birds’ raucous song. These are sensory details, which appeal to the senses. The passage does not hint at a future event or return to an earlier one, so the best choice is “sensory details.”
