Answer 1

Answer:

D. Samantha can't get out of bed because she broke her leg.

Answer 2

Answer:

Samantha can't get out of bed because she broke her leg.

Explanation:

We change the verb form as per the most suitable option:

• V1 Base Form (Infinitive): To Break
• V2 Past Simple: Broke
• V3 Past Participle: Broken
• V4 3rd Person Singular: Breaks
• V5 Present Participle/Gerund: Breaking

Here we need to use V2 Past Simple which is most apt here.

Past Simple:

• The fundamental past tense in Modern English is the simple past, often known as the past simple, past indefinite, or preterite.
• Despite having various other purposes, its primary function is to narrate previous occurrences.
• There are a few hundred irregular verbs with several forms, whereas ordinary English verbs produce the simple past in -ed.
• The term "simple" is used to distinguish between past tense forms that require auxiliaries in conjunction with participles, such as the past perfect and past progressive, and those whose fundamental form uses the simple past tense alone.
