Correct Answer
C. A small animal is in Sam's bedroom.

Explanation
The correct answer is "A small animal is in Sam's bedroom." This answer is inferred from the phrase "one noisy night." The phrase suggests that something unusual or disruptive is happening, and the presence of a small animal in Sam's bedroom would likely cause noise and disturbance. The other options, such as it being light outside or people exchanging greetings, do not align with the idea of a noisy night in Sam's bedroom.

The sentence "Tree limbs snap and fall" implies that there is a strong wind or some other force causing the limbs to break, further indicating that the night is not still. Lastly, the sentence "The wind screams" directly states that there is noise and movement in the form of a screaming wind, reinforcing the idea that the night is not still.
