Best answer 4 votes 4 votes Part of sentence is in past tense (was filed) so we should write the entire sentence in past. Only one option (C) "was allowed to" is in past. Correct Option: C. sutanay3 answered Jul 2, 2018 • selected Jun 2, 2019 by Arjun sutanay3 comment Share Follow See 1 comment See all 1 1 comment reply chirudeepnamini commented Nov 28, 2019 i edited by chirudeepnamini Nov 28, 2019 reply Follow Share Just to add.. “Has been” is used for the present perfect continuous tense. This form is used to refer to something which had started in the past and is still continuing in the present tense. So not a correct option Source: http://www.differencebetween.net/language/difference-between-has-been-and-was/ 0 votes 0 votes Please log in or register to add a comment.
