Question 5 • DAEP-English 7 A(20 Day Term)

Which sentence paints the most vivid picture using the most examples of figurative language?

Answer
A
The colorful leaves looked like dancers as a storm approached from the north.
B
The tiny green plants broke through the soil's surface, looking for a hug from the sun.
C
Winter paints a masterpiece with stars of ice that float like feathers to a frozen canvas.
D
Summertime usually welcomes a host of flying insects and flowers as pretty as peacocks.

Explanation

Choice C combines several vivid figures of speech: winter “paints a masterpiece,” ice crystals are called “stars,” they “float like feathers,” and the frozen ground is a “canvas.” These comparisons and personifications create a rich picture. The other choices use fewer figurative images.
