The correct answer is B. Create a dramatic sound mix to present the sounds to the audience

Step-by-step explanation:

In short stories and other literary works, authors rely mainly on written descriptions, dialogues or monologues to present elements such as characters, settings, actions, etc. However, when these literary works are adapted into films, descriptions are not used as the use of a narrator is not common in films, instead filmmakers rely on actions of characters and show elements instead of describing them. This means, in the case of a short story set in a forest, the best for adapting this is to let the audience hear the sounds of the forest instead of describing them and thus, the correct answer is "create a dramatic sound mix to present the sounds to the audience".
