The wind rose, the evening grew dark, the neighbor looked up, was reading, and asked about the time.
Rose and grew both describe actions in the past. In the sentence, 'It (c) could not have been evening yet,' 'could' is used to indicate possibility or ability in the past. 'Looked' is the correct choice for 'His neighbor (d) ..... (look/looked) up,' as it refers to an action already completed in the past.
In the sentence 'His neighbor (d)........(look/looked) up from some crime book,' 'was reading' is the correct choice to maintain tense consistency: 'His neighbor (e) .... (read/was reading).' Lastly, 'asked' is the correct option to complete the sentence, 'He (f) (ask/asked) Rao what the time was.'
