Solution

The correct option is D chewing
The continuous tense shows an action that is, was, or will be in progress at a certain time. The continuous tense is formed with the verb ‘be’ + -ing form of the verb. Since the chew action was in progress at certain time, it is continuous. Hence, Option D is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence incorrect.
