Propolis Cognitive Error Autopsy

Official Correct Choice:
Option B: were shouting/kept
Concept: Past Continuous Interrupted by Simple Past Result.

Solution: Time marker 'last night' requires past continuous (were shouting) paired with simple past outcome (kept).

Why other options are incorrect:
  • Option A: Present continuous forms.

  • Options C & D: Mismatched tenses.
