Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate option:”Why _______ you go to the market?” “I ______ no time.” A. do/had B. will/have C. did/hadn’t D. didn’t/hadn’t

do/had
will/have
did/hadn't
didn't/hadn't

The correct answer is: C. did/hadn’t

The first blank is best filled with the past tense of the verb “go”, which is “did”. This is because the question is asking about a specific time in the past, when the speaker did not go to the market. The second blank is best filled with the past negative

form of the verb “have”, which is “hadn’t”. This is because the speaker is saying that they did not have time to go to the market.

Option A is incorrect because the present tense of the verb “go” is not appropriate for a question about a specific time in the past. Option B is incorrect because the future tense of the verb “have” is not appropriate for a question about a time in the past. Option D is incorrect because the past tense of the verb “go” is not appropriate for a question about a time in the past, and the past negative form of the verb “have” is not appropriate for a question about a time in the past.
