Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. aloud; allowed.

- Aloud: This word means in a voice that can be heard. In the context of reading, it implies reading audibly or out loud.
- Allowed: This word is the past tense of "allow," which means to give permission or approval. In the sentence, it indicates that the teacher permitted the speaker's best friend to celebrate his birthday in school.
