HELP MEEEE!!!!!! MEDAL FAN Which word group best completes the sentence without introducing an inappropriate shift in tense? Whenever my sister is chopping onions, A. she always kept tissues nearby. B. she always keeps tissues nearby. C. she always is keeping tissues nearby. D. she always has been keeping tissues nearby.

I'd say A. she always kept tissues nearby. Hope this helps, have a nice day. Tag me if you need help :)

Hello! The correct answer would be B. she always keeps tissues nearby. This is because in the original sentence the verb "be" is in third person present tense "my sister IS chopping onions." The verb "keep" in present tense is keeps. Hope this helped!
