Respuesta :

D. describing a momentary event in detail. - It's a perfect definition of “exploding the moment”. Very useful trick.

Answer:

D. Describing a momentary event in detail.

Explanation:

Exploding the moment refers to memoment a writer describes in detail an specific moment, time is slowed down and each frame is pictured. Instead of doing an unordinary description of that event, it gives an expanded description of it using as many figures os speech as needed: metaphors, similes, and allusions, and as many of the five senses as he can.

For example: the auhtor can write "A car crashed with a light post." That is an ordinary description. Exploding the moment would describe the color of the car, the sound of the crash, the little pieces of broken glass flying, the smell of gass permeating the street, etc.

In this way, the reader gets engaged by the all the details given.
