The correct answer to the given question will be (d) I, uh, went to the gym last night.
This is because the word "uh" is a hesitant term used by a speaker during moments of introspection or thought while talking to a person or a group of persons. In this case, "uh" is preceded and succeeded by a comma each in order to place the pauses in the right segments of the sentence.
Ans) (d) I, uh, went to the gym last night.
