Select the most appropriate option to substitute the highlighted segment in the given sentence. If there is no need to substitute it, select ‘No substitution required’.
Lavanya was happy to see that the tree they had planted the previous year has grow quite taller.

Correct option is B

The correct substitution of the highlighted segment is (b) had grown quite tall.
Explanation: The sentence is in past perfect tense (“had planted”), so the following verb must also be in past participle form—hence “had grown”. “Quite tall” is the grammatically correct comparative structure; "taller" requires a comparative marker like "than".
Grammatical rule used: Past perfect is formed using “had + past participle”. “Tall” is a descriptive adjective, and “quite” is an intensifier. “Taller” is used only in direct comparison.
Example: She had grown tall over the summer.
Information Booster: Avoid double comparatives like “more taller” or "quite taller" unless part of comparison using "than".
