B. When Tejas rewrote the sentence he made it more concise. The sentence is now shorter. It's meaning is understood better. The new, revised sentence has a better flow than the original sentence. In the revised sentence we can see that the crowd leap up because the buzzer sounded. In the original sentence it isn't as clear.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Neither A or C sounds correct (process of elimination). So that leaves B and D. Now given from what you learned in school, your teachers should tell you to put as much details in your writing as possible. Looking at B, that's exactly what Tejas did. HOPE THIS HELPED!
