Answer 2

Answer:

The best option seems indeed to be:

Then from five thousand throats and more there rose a lusty yell

Explanation:

All the lines given as options use imagery. Imagery is a literary device used to make scenes and descriptions more vivid to the audience. The writer uses words that appeal to the senses so that readers will be involved in the moment as if they were there, hearing, seeing, smelling what the characters are hearing, seeing, and smelling.

The line that appeals to the sense of hearing is "Then from five thousand throats and more there rose a lusty yell." Readers can imagine the roaring sound of the yell coming from thousands of people. How loud and vibrant it would be.
