B. The sense of hearing

What is imagery?

We can define imagery as a literary device that uses language to appeal to the five senses (sight, taste, touch, smell and hearing) to involve the reader and help visualize what is being described.

In the lines taken from the poems "Harlem" and "The Weary Blues" by Langston Hughes, the sense of hearing is predominant. The words "explode" and "thump" make readers imagine sounds in their heads while reading.

With the information above in mind, we can choose letter B as the best option.
