Answer
A
the use of figurative language
B
the use of dialogue
C
the use of sensory details
D

Explanation

Regional dialect reflects the language and speech patterns of the communities Zora Neale Hurston knew. In Their Eyes Were Watching God, the characters’ distinctive Southern Black speech helps readers understand the cultural experiences that shaped Hurston’s writing. Figurative language and sensory details enrich the story, but dialect most directly conveys those cultural experiences.
