She _ to the party last night.
Correct answer: C. Went
- A. Goes
- B. Gone
- C. Went
- D. Going
Explanation
The sentence 'She _ to the party last night.' requires a verb in the simple past tense because of the phrase 'last night,' which indicates a past action. 'Went' is the correct simple past tense of 'go,' making it the appropriate choice. 'Goes' is incorrect because it's in the present tense. 'Gone' is a past participle and needs an auxiliary verb like 'has' or 'had' to form a correct tense. 'Going' is a present participle, generally used with auxiliary verbs to form continuous tenses, and does not fit the structure of this past tense sentence.
