Tense

• Tense refers to the period during which an action is taking place.

• The sentence is present in the passive voice. Thus, 'were made' should be used. Hence option d is not the correct answer.

• Since the verb 'made' indicates the tense, we need to use the simple form of the verb after that. It can only be done by introducing the infinitive 'to.'

• Thus, option c is the answer.
