Question

One day you finally knew

what you had to do, and began,
though the voices around you
kept shouting
their bad advice --
though the whole house
began to tremble
and you felt the old tug
at your ankles.
"Mend my life!"
each voice cried.
But you didn't stop.
You knew what you had to do,
though the wind pried
with its stiff fingers
at the very foundations,
though their melancholy
was terrible.
It was already late
enough, and a wild night,
and the road full of fallen
branches and stones.
But little by little,
as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of clouds,
and there was a new voice
which you slowly
recognized as your own,
that kept you company
as you strode deeper and deeper
into the world,
determined to do
the only thing you could do --
determined to save
the only life you could save.

Which of the following is an example of a descriptive word choice?

"what you had to do, and began,"
"determined to save"
"But you didn't stop"
"and you felt the old tug"

Answer 1

I think the answer would be your final choice.

Answer 2

The example of a descriptive word choice is "and you felt the old tug"

Explanation:

Descriptive language appeals to our senses: taste, touch, sight, smell, and sound. When used correctly, descriptive words can entertain, persuade, inform, and educate the reader. They can create emotions and very vivid descriptions through the use of adjectives which are the maximum example of descriptive words.

"and you felt the old tug" is the only line from the given options that appeal a sense.
