For each sentence, underline the action verb in the parentheses that creates a more vivid picture. 1. We (sit, lounge) on the big chairs near the pool..I underlined lounge. 2. The horses (go, gallop) across the field. I underline gallop. 3. Minna and Max (gulp, eat) their sandwiches in a hurry. I underline gulp. 4. The workers (drag, move) the heavy load across the yard. I underline drag. 5. Rosa and I (put, staple) the parts together. I underline put.... Is my answers all correct? Thank you...

I agree with all of your answers -- except for 5. The verb staple is more precise and vivid than put.
