Answer 1

Answer:-

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

• She $\bf{\underline{recognized}}$ him at once.

• Past Perfect Tense

Answer 2

The correct answer in the given blank is recognized (option 2).

• The given sentence depicts a previous occurrence that has already occurred.
• As a result, in the sentence, the past particle form of the verb is proper.
• The form "recognize" displays a present event that is inaccurate in this context.
• "Was recognizing" is a continuous form of a past occurrence, therefore it's also wrong in this statement.
• In the statement, the past perfect form "recognized" is correct signifying that she recognized him right away.
• Hence the correct sentence is: "She recognized him at once."
