I would say that D is the best answer, but it is not a good answer because it is creates a redundancy. Of course, illustrations are visual. That choice is so silly, you might want to try one of the other answers, but none of them is good.

Hi

I agree: it's just not a good question. My guess is that children like pictures in books for the same reason that adults, if they want to know how change a car battery, will look on YouTube. Words and pictures naturally go together

Two people have already told you that it;s not a good question. We can't explain why your teacher should prefer one inappropriate answer to another,

Two people may be wrong. This is a definition from dictionary.com:
"2. a comparison or an example intended for explanation or corroboration."
So, an illustration may be not only presented

I was about to mention that when I used to teach music, I would often illustrate a musical principle by playing something on the piano. Nothing visual was involved. Even a blind student would have understood.

So are we saying that what I did was not an illustration of the principle?

It's amazing how many people hop on the bandwagon without knowing where it's going.

I missed something after considering a question and the responses. I hardly think that's 'jumping on the bandwagon'.
