• A. have come
• B. where

• D. storms

Explanation: "Battered" is the correct word to use, as it means being severely affected or damaged by something (in this case, the storms of persecution).- "Batter" is a verb that means to hit or strike repeatedly, or a mixture of ingredients for cooking, and doesn't fit the context of the sentence.

The corrected versions make it clearer that the sand is what's intensely hot.
