Answer Options
A.
The garden was full of bright flowers: crimson roses, buttery yellow daisies, and deep‑violet irises arranged in neat rows beside a small pond with water lilies and dragonflies hovering above the surface. A stone bench sat under a shady tree, its surface smooth and cool. The scene was pleasant and inviting, offering a peaceful place to sit and enjoy the view.
B.
The garden stretched out with rows of roses, daisies and irises swaying in the wind. A gentle sound came from the pond where lilies floated and dragonflies darted. The scent of jasmine mixed with wet earth after rain. The stone bench felt cool under the hand, offering a quiet place to sit.
Correct Answer
C.
The garden unfolded like a living tapestry, its beds awash in a riot of crimson roses, buttery yellow daisies, and deep‑violet irises that swayed gently in the breeze. A soft murmur rose from the pond, where water lilies floated and dragonflies skimmed the surface, their wings humming faintly. The air was heavy with the sweet perfume of jasmine and the earthy scent of damp soil after a recent rain. Touching the moss‑covered stone bench, one felt its cool, velvety texture beneath fingertips, inviting a moment of quiet contemplation.
D.
The garden unfolded like a painted canvas, its beds filled with crimson roses, buttery yellow daisies, deep‑violet irises, and even some wild lavender that seemed to dance in the soft afternoon light. A soft murmur rose from the pond, where water lilies floated lazily and dragonflies skimmed the surface, their wings humming faintly, while a distant robin sang a melodic tune that echoed across the hedges. The air was heavy with the sweet perfume of jasmine, the earthy scent of damp soil after a recent rain, and a hint of fresh-cut grass from the nearby lawn. Touching the moss‑covered stone bench, one felt its cool, velvety texture beneath fingertips, inviting a moment of quiet contemplation, while a butterfly landed nearby, adding a splash of color to the scene.
