Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. flung.
- Throw means to propel something through the air by hand.
- Fling means to throw something carelessly or without control.
- The subject did not aim the bag towards something so "Fling" is the correct verb.
- Now, from the other verbs we can understand that the sentence is in past tense so "Flung" is appropriate in the blank.
The correct sentence will be: He flung a bag of something into the boat, and then got in himself and sat down.
