Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

"Stomped" is the past tense of "stomp," which is appropriate for the context of the sentence (referring to a past action). "Announced" is also in past tense, as it matches the tense of the main verb "stomped." Choice A is not the best choice because "stomps" is present tense, which doesn't match the context of the sentence. Choice C is not the best choice because "announces" is present tense, which doesn't match the tense of the main verb "stomped."
