B. She obeys her father.
C. She obeyed her father.
D. She had obeyed her father

Answered by admin @ 07/10/2021

A sentence which contains a verb in the simple past tense is C. She obeyed her father.

Simple past tense is used to depict an action that existed or happened before now. It is the basic form, action duration is not important as it can be in the distant past or recent past.

Certain time expressions are associated with a simple past tense that is:

Frequency - I sometimes ate those chips

A definite point in time- we went to the mall last week
An indefinite point in time- when I was a child, I loved playing hide and seek.

Hence, in the above sentence, it uses a definite point in time "obeyed her father."
