Correct answer: C

Correct answer: In

Explanation: 'In' is used to indicate that someone is already in a particular state while doing something. Here, it means she was in a frenzy of rage at the time she was walking.

  • Use 'in' to describe being in a state while performing an action: We found her walking in a frenzy of rage.

  • Use 'into' only if you mean she began to enter that state as she walked: We found her walking into a frenzy of rage.

  • Conclusion: 'In' is the most natural choice for the sentence as given because it indicates she was already experiencing the frenzy while walking.
