The correct answer is B. Finally, I stood still, listening to the barely audible whoosh- whoosh- whoosh from the propellers.

Explanation

Sounds can be represented linguistically through words, this resource is known as onomatopoeia. Onomatopoeia is the use of letters to form words in the language itself to imitate certain non-verbal sounds, such as the sounds of animals, natural phenomena, impacts, devices, etc. Therefore, the correct answer is B. "Finally I stood still, listening to the barely audible whoosh- whoosh- whoosh from the propellers" because in this sentence the onomatopoeia "whoosh" is used to express the sound of the birds.
