Answer: The sense sight applies to the description.

Explanation: "Blond-haired boy" and "a slim new American nose" as it says is describing a look and you cannot hear, touch, or smell a look, you would be using your sight (your eyes) for this.

Appealing to senses

Authors often use descriptions to appeal to the five senses. That means they purposefully choose words that evoke an image or a smell, for example. That helps immerse readers in the story and evoke certain sensations and feelings.

In the excerpt from "Fish Cheeks," Tan appeals to the sense of sight when she mentions Robert's blond hair and a slim American nose. Clearly, the way the boy looks and her own appearance are very important to teenage Tan.

With the information above in mind, we can select option A as the correct answer.
