Question

Fill in the blank with a suitable option:
Barbara and Tony _________ to the beach last Sunday.

• A. was
• B. went
• C. go
• D. were

Answer 1

The correct option is B went

The words 'last Sunday' mean that the event happened in the past.
Option B: 'Went' is the simple past form of the verb 'go'. It is used when the event happened in the past. Hence option B is correct.
Option A: 'Was' is also a simple past verb, but its meaning isn't relevant here. It refers to a state of being, 'was tired'.
Option C: 'Go' is the base verb and cannot be used here, base verbs need to be modified according to the tense of the sentence, 'went'.
Option D: 'Were' is the plural form of 'was'. This verb, too, isn't relevant here.
Hence options A, C and D are incorrect.
