Answer:

"Air was either entering or escaping at the rim with a thin, sizzling sound".

Step-by-step explanation:

Sensory details are employed by the authors to engage the reader's interest by appealing to their senses of touch, sound, sight, smell, and taste that functions to create a visual or imaginative picture that assists the readers to add symbolism to the work.

"The War of the Worlds" by H.G. Wells is a science fiction that displays a conflict between mankind and an extraterrestrial race. It includes imagery and sensory details to enhance the impact among the readers. In the given options, the details that appeal to our senses is the last option as it contains the description of air imaginatively that is adding symbolism and activates the sensory experiences.

Hope this helps
