She____________  for hours while the train rolled on.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. slumbered.

"Slumbered" is the past tense of the verb "slumber," which means to sleep lightly.

The sentence is in the past tense, so "slumbered" fits best.

The other options are either incorrect verb forms or do not match the past-tense context.
