Correct Answer: present


Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.

This is the correct choice for the sentence, as present is used as an adjective, which means being in attendance or being at a particular place. In this sense, when someone is described as present , it means he is currently there, especially at a specific location or event.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

  • Their indicates possession or ownership.
  • Possess is to own or have.
  • The p ast refers to the time that has already passed.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: As usual, a lot of people were present in the king's darbar.
