Correct Answer: retired


Solution : The third option is the correct answer.

Retired: It means ceased working or engaging in activity. The use of the simple past tense (retired) in the sentence indicates that the action of retiring for the day occurred and was completed in the past.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: "After a noisy and tumultuous supper, we retired for the day."
