Question

there was a raging storm. it was in the forest. rain fell. leaves rustled as the wind swept through the trees. squirrels hid as the sky opened up. all the birds, nestled in the trees, quieted and stopped chirping. which revision best uses a phrase to combine the first two sentences? there was a raging forest storm. deep in the forest, a storm was raging. to escape the storm, forest animals hid. to the animals of the forest, a storm raged.

Explanation:

The first two sentences "There was a raging storm. It was in the forest." can be combined using the pre - positional phrase "Deep in the forest" to create a more descriptive and coherent sentence. This option effectively combines the location (forest) and the action (storm raging) in a single, well - formed sentence. The other options either change the focus or do not combine the two initial sentences as effectively.

Answer:

Deep in the forest, a storm was raging.
