Solution (By Examveda Team)

n the given sentence "I was very tired. So I lay down on the bed and went to sleep," the verb "was" is in its correct form to fill in the blank. It is the past tense form of the verb "be" used for the pronoun "I."

The sentence is talking about the subject's state of being tired in the past. The past tense form "was" is the appropriate choice for this context.

The other options are not suitable for this sentence. Option A, "am," is in the present tense and does not match the past tense context of the sentence. Option B, "will be," is in the future tense and is not relevant to the past situation described. Option D, "have been," is in the present perfect tense and is also not appropriate for describing a past condition.

Therefore, the correct answer is "was" (Option C).
