Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is (C).
The sentence is in the negative, so we need a past participle to complete the verb phrase. The past participle of “take” is “taken.”
The other options are incorrect because they are not past participles.
- (A) “take” is the infinitive form of the verb.
- (B) “taking” is the present participle form of the verb.
- (D) “taken” is the past participle form of the verb, but it is used as a noun in this sentence.
The sentence means that the speaker cannot remember a single time when the person in question took a day off work.
