The sensory details in this passage best help the reader

to imagine
Read the excerpt from The Call of the Wild.
From every hill slope came the trickle of running water,
the music of unseen fountains. All things were thawing,
bending, snapping. The Yukon was straining to break
loose the ice that bound it down... Air-holes formed,
fissures sprang and spread apart... And amid all this
bursting, rending, throbbing of awakening life, under the
blazing sun and through the soft-sighing breezes, like
wayfarers to death, staggered the two men, the woman,
and the huskies.
O the harsh weather conditions of winter.
O the hardships of the humans and dogs.
the sense of hope that the characters feel.
O the sights and sounds of early spring.

Answer:

D. The sights and sounds of early spring.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just read and see the details. It is simple. And where it says, "All things were THAWING, bending, snapping." Thawing is the key word in there because when it is thawing, it is talking about winter ending and spring starting.
