Question

which verbs would be appropriate to use in an essay that is written in the past tense? choose three answers.
□ arose
□ dealt
□ misled
□ exclude
□ overpower

Explanation:

To determine appropriate past - tense verbs, we analyze each option:

• "arose" is the past tense of "arise".
• "dealt" is the past tense of "deal".
• "misled" is the past tense of "mislead".
• "exclude" is a present - tense verb.
• "overpower" is a present - tense verb.

So the three appropriate past - tense verbs are "arose", "dealt", and "misled".

Answer:

A. arose, B. dealt, C. misled
