read the passage from \the latin deli: an ars poetica.\ all wanting the comfort of spoken spanish, to gaze upon the family portrait of her plain wide face, her ample bosom resting on her plump arms, her look of maternal interest as they speak to her and each other of their dreams and their disillusions— in this passage, the words \ample\ and \plump\ are ○ sensory images that describe a wealthy person. ○ sensory images that describe a motherly figure. ○ words that express an attitude of respect. ○ words that express an attitude of disgust.

Answer

Brief Explanations:

  1. Analyze the first option: The passage doesn't mention wealth, so "describe a wealthy person" is incorrect.
  2. Analyze the second option: The words "ample" (about bosom) and "plump" (about arms) along with "look of maternal interest" suggest a motherly figure. These words create sensory images (visual) of a motherly appearance.
  3. Analyze the third option: The words "ample" and "plump" are descriptive of physical features, not expressing respect.
  4. Analyze the fourth option: The context (maternal interest, family portrait) doesn't show disgust; the words are neutral - descriptive, not derogatory.

Answer:

B. sensory images that describe a motherly figure.
