Answer:
he had wanted.(c)
Explanation:
It was a question testing reporting speech rules. It is reported speech:
The man said to the boy, "What do you want?"
According the rules the correct sentence should have been as shown below:
The old man (a)/ asked the boy what (b)/ he wanted.(c)/ No error(d)
According to reported speech rules for interrogative sentences 'do want' is changed into 'wanted' while converting from direct to indirect speech.
