    Question

    Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
    They _________ a problem with the internet connection, but it’s fixed now.

    A.

    had

    B.

    do

    C.

    have

    D.

    make

    Correct option is A

    The correct option to fill in the blank is (a) had.
    The sentence uses past tense ("it’s fixed now" indicates the problem existed earlier but is resolved), so the verb must match this tense. “Had” is the past tense of 'have’ and fits correctly.
    Example: We had an issue with the network, but it was resolved.
    Meanings of other options:
    · (a) Had – past form of “have”; used to show possession in the past (पास था)
    · (b) Do – present tense auxiliary; not suitable for past reference (करना)
    · (c) Have – present tense of possession; doesn’t fit with “but it’s fixed now” (है)
    · (d) Make – to create or cause; not used to describe possession (बनाना)
    �� Grammar Tip: For past events that are now resolved, use past tense verbs like "had," especially for temporary conditions.
