Correct Answer: Wildly
 


Solution : The correct answer is option 1.

Explanation:

- Let's examine the words' definitions:
- Wildly: in an extreme or uncontrolled manner.
- Newly: just now.
- Obediently: in a way that demonstrates your willingness to do what someone in a position of authority has asked you to do.
Rarely - Infrequently
The answer that comes closest to the definition of "extreme" must be the correct choice because the sentence refers to the "drumming" of the rain.
