Answer:
C. It is a bad storm outside.
E. They are safe from the storm inside.
Explanation:
Outside there isn't actually a roaring lion, this is a metaphor. The wind is <em>like a </em>roaring lion, meaning the wind is very strong. But inside is <em>like</em> a purring kitten. It's not actually a kitten, but it means that the inside is safe and calm.
