Question

which sentence is in the past tense?
the new slides at the park are fun.
in the summer, mrs. sherman had short hair.
the cousins will complete the project over long.

Explanation:

To determine the past - tense sentence, we analyze each option:

• "The new slides at the park are fun" uses the present - tense verb "are", so it is in the present tense.
• "In the summer, Mrs. Sherman had short hair" uses the past - tense verb "had" (the past form of "have"), so this sentence is in the past tense.
• "The cousins will complete the..." uses the future - tense auxiliary verb "will", so it is in the future tense.

Answer:

In the summer, Mrs. Sherman had short hair
