Solution
The correct option is A saw In the given sentence, 'wounded' indicates that the tense of the sentence is past tense. Thus, the answer must also be in the past tense.
Option A is incorrect. 'will see' is in the future tense and not the past tense. Thus, using it will make the tense of the sentence inconsistent.
Option B is incorrect. 'sees' is in the present tense and not the past tense. Thus, using it will make the tense of the sentence inconsistent.
Option C is incorrect. 'has seen' is in the present perfect tense and not the past tense. Thus, using it will make the tense of the sentence inconsistent.
Option D is correct. 'saw' is in the past tense. Thus, it has the required tense and is the correct answer.
