- bitten him
- No Improvement
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 2
Option 3: 3
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: 2
Solution : The second option is the correct choice.
Bit is the correct choice to be used in the sentence as the sentence is telling about a past event, and bit is the past form of the verb "bite".
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
- Bite is in the present tense and is not the appropriate choice to be used as it is an event that is already completed.
- Beat means to strike someone repeatedly and is not the correct choice in the context of the sentence.
- Bitten is the past participle (V3 form) and does not fit the sentence.
Therefore, the correct sentence is, "The dog bit him".
