Solution

The correct option is A reads

Description

A transitive verb is a verb that accepts one or more objects. This is a sentence with an object (book). Thus we should fill the blank with a transitive verb.
Option A is incorrect as “read” can only be used for a sentence which is in the first person.
Option B is also wrong as it is continuous present tense.
Option C is the correct answer. When a sentence is in the third person the verb usually ends with a “s”
Option D is also wrong.

Option C is the correct answer
