Answer 2

“Like a skein of loose silk blown against a wall.”

Step-by-step explanation:

In literature, imagery is a descriptive and vivid language that creates a mental picture that appeals to the senses of touch, smell, taste, sight, or hearing. Option B is an example of imagery because the words employed evokes a picture in our minds and appeal to our sense of touch with the phrase “loose silk” and our senses of sight with the phrase “blown against a wall.”
