Question

question 4 (1 point)
the day i graduated from high school, i woke up in a fit of nerves. i can feel sweat dripping down my face as i sat up in bed. it dawned on me: the next chapter of my life was beginning, and i have no idea what was next.
which verbs must be corrected to create consistent verb tense?
○ dripping, beginning
○ sat, dawned
○ can, have
○ graduated, woke

Explanation:

The passage describes a past event (high school graduation day), so all verbs should follow past tense. "can" (present tense) should be "could", and "have" (present tense) should be "had" to match the past tense context of the rest of the text. The other options contain verbs that are already in correct past or progressive forms for the narrative.

Answer:

can, have
