The servant had not even left the place when a sudden rush of wind blew away the clothes which he had just tried.

The correct answer is E. Gust.

A breeze is a light wind, while a storm is a violent disturbance of the atmosphere, with strong winds and rain or snow. A gale is a strong wind, with a speed of 39 to 73 miles per hour. A typhoon is a severe tropical cyclone, with winds of at least 74 miles per hour.

A gust is a sudden, brief increase in the speed of the wind. In the context of the question, the servant had not even left the place when a sudden rush of wind blew away the clothes which he had just tried. This suggests that the wind was not a steady breeze, but rather a sudden gust.
