• A questão pede para completar as lacunas com os verbos no  Simple Past.
  
  
  Os verbos result e turn são regulares, isto é, para formar o passado desses verbos acrescentamos as partículas “d" e “ed". Temos ainda, algumas particularidades que não abordaremos nessa questão. Portanto, o passado dos verbos result e turn são: resulted e turned.
  O verbo become é irregular e seu passado é became.
  E o passado do verbo "to be" é was ou were. Usamos "was" para (I, he, she, it) e "were" para (you, we, they). 
  Dessa forma, temos o seguinte texto
