Explanation:

• "use specific, strong verbs in place of general ones": Specific verbs can create more vivid actions, helping to paint a clearer picture.
• "use descriptive words that appeal to the reader’s senses": Sensory - appealing words (like how something looks, smells, feels) are key to vivid imagery.
• "use active voice to show instead of tell the reader": Active voice makes actions more immediate and shows the scene rather than just stating it, enhancing imagery.
• "use dialogue to develop the character" focuses on character development, not imagery. "use setting to place the story" is about context, not directly creating imagery.

Answer:

A. use specific, strong verbs in place of general ones
C. use descriptive words that appeal to the reader’s senses
E. use active voice to show instead of tell the reader
