"the wind beat it against the mast until it was torn into shreds"
"it tore the oars from the men's hands and flung them into the sea; "
"then ripped the rudder away from the boat." All of these sentences show us that the storm is violent and ripping out everything around it. So it is an active and angry storm.

This is a good example of a descriptive paragraph in literature. The author implements very strong meaning verbs in order to make us feel as if we were there. The verbs such as beat, tear, push, fling create a very good visual effect where it is impossible not to imagine a very hard storm destroying everything around. The mention of the wind pushing the sea... creates a sound effect that contributes to the terrifying picture. The men are victims of this natural disaster. All the verbs represent intensive actions and movements.
The answer a. is false because there is no mention of the storm clouds.
Neither the answer c. is the correct one, as we clearly understand that the storm is getting worse and worse.
The option d. is not correct because there is no sign of calm.
