Question

List at least three examples of imagery in the text that add to the overall tone. Explain how each description contributes to the emotional power of the piece.

Answer 1

Do you have an example of the "text"? It's difficult to answer a question like this without seeing the text itself.
Main pieces of imagery can be something describing how stuff looks, smells, feels, or what it sounds like. It should create a picture in your head. So whatever helps illustrate the text for you is an example of imagery! Hope this helps!

Answer 2

If the text is "The Odyssey" by Homer then the answer is,

When the text said, “He gobbled them up like a lion in the wilderness, flesh, bones, marrow, and entrails, without leaving anything uneaten.” the text shows that whatever is acting crazy in the wilderness isn’t messing around. Also, when the text says, “As for us, we wept and lifted up our hands to heaven on seeing such a horrid sight, for we did not know what else to do.” it shows that the people who saw the beast kill the other people they cried and were very sad. And when the text says, “So we stayed sobbing and sighing where we were till morning came.” it shows that the people who were crying were upset or sad.
