Solution

The correct option is D Mudra said that she was not volunteering for the trek.
‘Mudra said that she was not volunteering for the trek.' is the correct answer. It follows the structure of ‘subject + was/were + not + present participle form of the verb’. It has the negative word ‘not’ in between the helping verb ‘was’ and the main verb ‘ volunteering’. Here, the tense changed from present continuous to past continuous. It talks about an ongoing action that took place in the past.
