Even without an excerpt or passage to analyze, it is possible to safely answer this question.

Answer:

The inclusion of sensory details makes readers feel as if they: can see and hear what the narrator sees and hears.

Step-by-step explanation:

That is precisely the purpose of authors who use sensory details: to have readers see and feel what the narrator or characters see and feel. Sensory details are those that appeal to one of the five senses (sight, smell, taste, touch and hearing). Through word choice and figurative language, authors can describe an event or sensation so vividly that readers will be able to feel as if they are involved in it, as if it is happening to them.
