Correct Answer: was been operated by some readers
Solution : The correct choice is the third option .
The use of "was been" is incorrect, as only "was" should be used because the sentence is in the simple past tense. "Was operated" is the correct usage to convey that the book market was operated by some readers.
So, the correct sentence would be: A book market was operated by some readers in the street when they reached there.
