After working so much / in the fields yesterday, / did you took a break?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. did you took a break.  

  • The error lies in the verb tense.
  • The correct form should be: "After working so much in the fields yesterday, did you take a break?" 
  • The verb "take" must be in its base form following the auxiliary verb "did."

Hence, the correct form is "Did you take a break?" rather than "Did you took a break?"

Hence, the chosen option will be the correct answer.
