Read the excerpt from “The Scarlet Ibis”

Finally I went back and found him huddled beneath a red nightshade bush beside the road. He was sitting on the ground, his face buried in his arms, which were resting on his drawn-up knees. “Let’s go, Doodle,” I said. He didn’t answer, so I placed my hand on his forehead and lifted his head. Limply, he fell backwards onto the Earth. He had been bleeding from the mouth, and his neck and the front of his shirt were stained in brilliant red. “Doodle! Doodle!” I cried, shaking him, but there was no answer but the ropy rain. He lay beet awkwardly, with his head thrown far back, making his vermillion neck appear unusually long and slim. His little legs, bent sharply at the knees, had never before seemed so fragile, so thin.

Correct option is A.

The imagery appeals primarily to "Sight" sense to help the reader in the scene.

"brilliant red."

"ropy rain."

"his vermilion neck appear unusually long and slim. "

It can't be sound or taste, because none of those feelings are described. It might be touch, but based on the way things are described as being seeing instead of felt, I doubt it. According to the narrator, doodle held his necks with his hand and was standing still at a point for some long, which was actually awkward.
