Select appropriate option to fill in the blank:Why ________ (Sue/resign) from her job? Didn’t she enjoy it?

Sue resigned
does Sue resign
did Sue resign
has Sue resigned

The correct answer is: C. did Sue resign

The sentence is in the past tense, so we need to use a past tense verb. The other options are not in the past tense.

  • Sue resigned is the simple past tense of the verb “resign.” It means that Sue quit her job in the past.
  • Does Sue resign is the present tense of the verb “resign.” It means that Sue is quitting her job now.
  • Has Sue resigned is the present perfect tense of the verb “resign.” It means that Sue has quit her job at some point in the past, but we don’t know when.

In this case, we are asking about a specific event in the past, so we need to use the simple past tense. Therefore, the correct answer is C. did Sue resign.
