Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

A 'wh' question is asked for information about something.
The given sentence says how heavily 'it was raining'.
Option A: This is the most suitable question, as it asks "how was it raining", it wants information on how it was raining (scarcely or heavily).
Hence option A is correct.
Option B: This is a yes/no question. It does not ask for any information but asks if it was raining or not. Hence this isn't an appropriate question.
Option C: This is also a yes/no question that does not ask for information (about how it rained). It requires a confirmation - 'Yes, it was'.
Hence options B and C are incorrect.
Option D is incorrect because the answer lies in A.

B Correct answer
Explanation
Option B is the correct answer because 'who' is used to refer to a person who is doing something.
Options A and C are incorrect because the question specifically asks for a 'wh' question.
Option D is incorrect because it is a grammatical rule that in a 'wh' question, the question word is placed before the verb. Also 'what' is used to refer to a thing.

So, options A, C and D are incorrect.
