Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
She ______ the book to her friend.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. lent.
Context: The sentence is: “She ______ the book to her friend.”
The blank requires the past tense of the verb “lend,” as the action already happened.
Meaning of the words:
-
laned – unrelated word, refers to a lane; incorrect.
-
lend – base form of the verb; not in past tense.
-
lent – past tense of “lend”; perfectly fits the sentence.
-
leant – past tense of “lean”; incorrect in this context.
Correct word: lent
Final Sentence: She lent the book to her friend.
Hence, the chosen option is correct.
