Answer :
Cambridge English Dictionary defines "trumpet" as " a brass musical instrument consisting of a metal tube with one narrow end, into which the player blows, and one wide end. Three buttons are pressed in order to change notes."
The correct paragraph with the blank duly filled up is :
Kendra leaned back and blew a long, clear note towards the sky. Behind her, the bass kept a shuffling rhythm and the drums moved the music forward. She hunched over her trumpet and blew a quick, dabbling pattern of low tones into the crowd. Everyone in the audience was smiling. It was a perfect night for jazz.
The actions of "leaned back and blew a long, clear note towards the sky" and "hunched over her __________ and blew a quick, dabbling pattern of low tones into the crowd" only match with the musical instrument of trumpet.
