Not C.

Please re-read your directions:
<i>… words that <b>imitate the sound of a particular animal and its actions</b>. Which choice best accomplishes this goal?
The pig squealed and the mud squelched under his stomping feet.</i>

Read the sentences <b>out loud</b>. Which one of the three has the SOUND that a pig makes? the SOUND of the pig's action?

Now you know it's not C. So … is it the original sentence? or B?
