Explicação
-
A questão pede a sequência que apresenta verbos regulares no passado (simple past). Em inglês, verbos regulares no passado normalmente terminam em -ed.
-
Verificando as alternativas:
- a) was é passado do verbo to be (irregular). Além disso, “eleted” está grafado errado (o correto seria elected). Portanto, não serve.
- b) enchanted, worked, elected, played: todos terminam em -ed e são formas de passado de verbos regulares (enchant, work, elect, play). Correta.
- c) was (irregular) e known (particípio irregular de know). Além disso, “incomplet” não é verbo no passado. Portanto, não serve.
- d) “where” e “between” não são verbos (são advérbio/pronome relativo e preposição), “fortunate” é adjetivo e were é passado de to be (irregular). Portanto, não serve.
Alternativa correta: (b).
