The postman delivered the parcel yesterday.

Explanation:

1. In this question, there is a sentence given which is incomplete and a verb is missing which is represented by the blank in the sentence. We are asked to fill the blank with an appropriate form of verb by choosing from the options given.

2. The appropriate verb suitable in the blank is 'has delivered'. Therefore, the complete sentence will be: The postman delivered the parcel yesterday. So, the right choice is Option (C).

3. Reason for correct option:

• Here, the given sentence is in the form of simple past tense. This can be understood by the term 'yesterday' in the sentence. Therefore, we have to choose the verb which is in the form of past tense. So, Option (C): delivered is the right choice.

4. Reason for incorrect options:

• Option (A) is incorrect because 'has delivered' is in the form of present perfect tense but the given sentence is in simple past tense. So, Option (A) is incorrect.

• Option (B) is wrong because 'is delivering' is in the form of present continuous tense.

• Option (D) is also incorrect as 'will deliver' is in the form of future tense. So, it is inappropriate.
