D) Said

Answer 1

Hint: Verbs are action words or a verb is a part of a sentence that tells what the subject performs. For example run, walk, eat, play etc.

Complete answer:
Here in this particular sentence we have to use the tenses and the type of tense that is used in the question. Past tense is used and past tense refers to the grammatical tense whose function is to place an action in the past time. For example: It rained yesterday, He kissed the baby.
Option A) Did – Is an incorrect answer because ‘did’ is the past tense of to ‘do’ and ‘did’ does not fit in the sentence. Thus this is the wrong answer.
Option B) Made – is the correct answer because to make up one's mind means take a firm decision. Thus ‘made’ completes the phrase correctly and this is the correct answer.
Option C) Got - Is an incorrect answer because ‘got is the past and past participle of get and ‘got’ does not fit in the sentence. Thus this is the wrong answer.
Option D) Said - Is an incorrect answer because ‘said is the past and past participle of say and ‘said’ does not fit in the sentence. Thus this is the wrong answer.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘B’ i.e, First she said “Yes”, then she said “No”, but in the end she made up her mind to marry her.

Note:In this question, the best of the verb is used to make the sentence meaningful along with the tenses. The given question is in the past tense we have to choose the answer according to tense given.
