“Have fun on your field trip, Alma! You may want to pack an umbrella.” My dad’s last-minute advice repeated in my head. I wished I had taken his advice, but I never expected to encounter a drenching downpour of rain during the school hiking trip. Yet here I was, soaked to the bone and unable to see more than a few steps in front of me on the nature trail. For only a moment, I lost sight of the trail guide and my group, but it was enough time to make my stomach somersault with worry. Calmly, I stopped and peered intently through the wall of rain, straining to see someone ahead of me. I saw the orange vest of the guide. What a relief! I raced forward, and when I reached Josie in the back of the group, I grabbed her hand and vowed not to let go until the rain stopped. Which revision of the underlined sentence is the BEST way to add more sensory language to the paragraph?
A little farther down the trail, I thought I recognized the trail guide wearing orange in the distance.
Suddenly a flash appeared, and I realized it was the guide’s neon-orange vest glowing through the rain
I noticed something orange, maybe the trail guide’s vest, moving ahead of me.
Through the falling rain, I caught a glimpse of bright orange ahead of me.
