Correct Answer: had worked hard


Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

"Had worked hard" should be used to fill in the blank since it uses the past perfect tense, which is appropriate for describing an action that was completed before another past action. In this sentence, the accolades came after the hard work was done.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "She deserved the accolades as she had worked hard for it."
