Answer:
I believe its C, but my mind said B
Explanation:
Basically 2 of those sentences are run-ons, and you don't want that, right?
The first one has too many pauses. The use of periods, to be exact. Thats wrong.
B makes sense a little because theres mostly pauses, and I'm sure that won't make sense.
C has to be correct because its more clear and makes alot of sense but look back at the answer:
"Trying desperately to remember the questions, she had for the mobster, Raven steadied her voice, then began", but I'm not EXACTLY sure though, because after "then began", there is supposed to be a comma after she starts talking.
D just doesn't make any sense. Its just a still sentence. So many pauses.
So, its probably going to be.... C, I believe. If I'm wrong, I'm sorry.
Progressive verbs I believe end in "-ing" because they are actions that are still in the process of being performed. So, the answer is C because of the word "reading"
