Correct Answer: allowed to take


Solution : The correct answer is the fourth option .

Explanation:

The past participle form of the verb should be used after the helping verb "weren't", as the sentence is expressed in the passive voice. Thus, in place of "allows" the correct verb form that should replace it is allowed to make the sentence grammatically accurate.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: They weren't allowed to take their dog into the store.
