Answer:
I thought I knew the answer.
Sorry!!
The word "while" is what makes the sentence a fragment, and substituting it with "when" would not correct it. The correct answer is B. delete "while" so that the sentence is: "She was making a pot of soup."
Answer: I'd strongly say D
Explanation:
A and B are just describing a current setting and the mood of the characters without much pop of an adventure, so I'd eliminate A and B.
C is tempting to choose, but for me, it would be a semi-trap answer considering the other option of D, which I'll further elaborate on later. C is depicting to the reader of the grandma apprising a girl about her journey to America, which is not that adventurous in the present because grandma is just saying a story, not being physically in it. I'd say this maybe could work because grandma is also technically being in an adventure in the past, but there could be a stronger option. Also, it kind of seems boring, and adventurous stories have to be adventurous. I'd eliminate it personally.
D perfectly matches the tone of an adventurous story. According to the Oxford Dictionary, adventure is described as an unusual and exciting, typically hazardous, experience or activity. You don't usually see somebody running so quickly on the street, and it seems exciting to the reader because it grabs their attention, and they are not just focused on one setting. We don't know who or what is causing him to run so much, but it definitely includes a physical activity. Aside from the definition, it also provides a lot of excruciating detail, so it makes it seem adventurous.
The answer is D.
C is also a good option, but D is stronger. If D was not there, C would be your best option.
