wake up to a

No improvement required

awaken up to an

woke up to a

- Option 1: wake up to a

- "wake" is present tense. The sentence describes something that happened in the past, so this option is not suitable.

- Option 2: No improvement required

- This implies the original sentence is correct. However, "woken up" needs to match past tense: "woke up."

- Option 3: awaken up to an

- "awaken up" is not a standard construction. "An" wouldn't fit with "blanket," which starts with a consonant sound.

- Option 4: woke up to a

- "woke" is the correct past tense of "wake" and matches the sentence's tense. "A" properly introduces "thick blanket."

- Correct Answer: Option 4: woke up to a
