Correct Answer: (4)


Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.

The original sentence is already grammatically correct. The use of the simple past tense "came out" is appropriate in this context to maintain the tense consistency, indicating that the action happened immediately after the phone call.

So, the correct sentence is: As soon as I called her, she came out of her house.
