4. Read the word in parentheses; then decide which of these sentences most effectively translates an abstract concept into a mental picture.
A. (Rumors) Whispers of doubt filled the empty halls like the reek of boiled cabbage.
B. (Studious) Lucy lay on her bed reading a back issue of National Geographic.
C. (Sunrise) The rising sun transformed the canyon into bright stone and deep shadow.
D. (Freedom) On her twenty-first birthday, Lola declared herself a woman.
