Question

which sentence is the best use of descriptive language? a grimy lizard climbed up the steep wall. a lizard climbed up the wall. an extremely grimy lizard quickly crawled up the steep wall.

Explanation:

Descriptive language uses vivid details (adjectives, adverbs) to paint a clearer picture. The third option has "extremely grimy" (adjective phrase) and "quickly" (adverb), plus "crawled" (more vivid verb) and "steep" (adjective for wall), providing more sensory/visual details than the others. The first has some details but less than the third, and the second is too plain.

Answer:

An extremely grimy lizard quickly crawled up the steep wall.
