Question
Piles of snow collected at the remote wilderness lodge huddled deep in the Kenai, Alaska, fjords during that blustery, long-ago winter. Nitika, the winter caretaker, took photographs of the drifts, which were frequently as high as the cabins' roofs. Nitika's photographs showed carefully shoveled paths that appeared as tunnels between the lonely cabins. The absolute silence was only occasionally punctuated by the call of a dark-eyed junco, a bird native to the area.
Which technique often used in fiction helps the reader better understand the passage?
A. The author deliberately prevents the reader from identifying with Nitika through a distancing technique.
B. The author allows the reader to form mental pictures of the scene using descriptive winter imagery.
C. The author uses hyperbole, or over-exaggeration, to describe the quiet of the snowy solitude.
