Answer: C. The crackle of burning wood woke me up.

Step-by-step explanation: The phrase "crackle of burning wood" presents a vivid imagery that is mainly auditory (the verb crackle resembles the very sound that it represents), but also visual, since the sight of burning wood is common to most readers. The use of imagery is not evident in any of the other examples.
