Answer:

A) As I picked up the telephone, my stomach flipped and my mouth dried like a desert.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vivid language is used to estimulate other senses while reading something, when you use vivid language you use other words to describe better what the person felt and how it affected him/her, in option A the author uses vivid language to help you have a better impression of what happened to the him while he picked up the phone.
