cousin said, &#8216;My room-mate had snored throughout the night.'&#8221; is in the past tense.

This would be the correct option if the cousin was telling the listener that her roommate snores every night.<\/p>\n<p>Option C is incorrect because it uses the verb &#8220;complained.&#8221; This would be the correct option if the cousin was expressing her dissatisfaction with her roommate&#8217;s snoring.<\/p>\n<p>Option D is incorrect because it uses the verb &#8220;felt.&#8221; This would be the correct option if the cousin was expressing her uncertainty about whether or not her roommate was snoring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Subscribe on
