Question 8 • CMS 2026-2027 English III CREDIT RECOVERY

Read this line from "Harlem." Or does it explode? Read this line from "The Weary Blues." Thump, thump, thump, went his foot on the floor. What sense do both of these lines rely on?

Answer
A
the sense of smell
B
the sense of hearing
C
the sense of touch
D
the sense of sight

Explanation

Both lines use words that suggest sounds. “Explode” evokes a loud blast, and “Thump, thump, thump” imitates the sound of a foot hitting the floor. So both lines rely on the sense of hearing.
