Solution

The correct option is D The English usually drink tea without milk.
A simple sentence is consists of a subject and a verb.
From the options, C is a complete sentence; it's a simple sentence as it contains one subject "The English" and one verb "drink". Hence option C is correct. ('English' is generally used as an adjective, but when referring to a group of people and along with the article 'the', it can perform as a noun.)
Option A contains both subject and verb, but it is still not a sentence, because the usual order of words in a sentence are: subject + verb + object, whereas the order here is subject (The English) + object (tea) + verb (usually drink). The object is the recipient of the verb. Hence option A is incorrect.
Option B is incomplete, it is not a simple sentence as the preposition 'without' lacks a suitable object, hence B is incorrect.
Similarly, Option D is incomplete (the preposition 'without' requires an object), so D is also incorrect.
