select the two sentences with sensory details that describe how things feel to the touch. standing under a tree just before sunset, cody shivered as a crisp, cool breeze pricked his bare arms. he and the other volunteers prepared to gently place butterflies on the lowest tree limbs they could find. the butterflies had been raised at a nearby butterfly house, where workers had kept them safe from predators. but now it was time for them to go and live in their natural habitat. cupping a brightly colored butterfly in his hand, cody grinned as the soft, flapping wings tickled his fingers. thirty minutes later, the butterflies were gone, and the volunteers began walking back to their cars.

Explanation:

1. Analyze the first candidate sentence: "Standing under a tree just before sunset, Cody shivered as a crisp, cool breeze pricked his bare arms." The phrase "crisp, cool breeze pricked his bare arms" describes the tactile sensation of the breeze on his skin, so this is a sensory detail about touch.
2. Analyze the second candidate sentence: "Cupping a brightly colored butterfly in his hand, Cody grinned as the soft, flapping wings tickled his fingers." The phrase "soft, flapping wings tickled his fingers" describes the tactile sensation of the butterfly's wings on his fingers, so this is also a sensory detail about touch.

Answer:

1. Standing under a tree just before sunset, Cody shivered as a crisp, cool breeze pricked his bare arms.
2. Cupping a brightly colored butterfly in his hand, Cody grinned as the soft, flapping wings tickled his fingers.
