Solution

The correct option is D didn't want / was raining

A verb is used to express an occurrence, action, or state. It is the grammatical centre of the predicate in a sentence.

An auxiliary verb is a verb which gives is used in the formation of tenses, moods, tones, etc.

Option D is correct as the past simple tense is used for an action or a series of actions in the past and the past continuous is used for expressing the idea that at a time in the past we were in the middle of something.

The other options are wrong as only past tense can be used.

The correct answer is D) didn't want
