The thunders ............................... the storm were scary to such an extent that I hid my head under the pillow.

• A. beside
• B. besides
• C. along with
• D. almost

Answer 1

Answer:

C. along with

• (A) beside – ❌ Means “next to”; doesn’t fit contextually.

• (B) besides – ❌ Means “in addition to”; awkward in this sentence.

• ✅ (C) along with – ✔️ Means “together with,” which fits perfectly here.

• (D) almost – ❌ Does not logically or grammatically fit in this context.
