Incorrrect verb phrases: the players drank the water that they have taken to practice

Not really sure what you're asking, but if you want me to correct the verb tense and change the sentence, I can help you.

The sentence would need to be changed to: "The players drank the water that they took to practice."

Explanation:

You would need to change the verb phrase "Have taken". That phrase is still past tense, yes, but it's past past perfect tense. What you need is past progressive tense. Hence the word "took".

this answer was editing it cause i couldn't delete!

for me, i'd go with (c) satisfied or (b) overjoyed because if you read it a couple of times, it makes since that it is c or b. it can't b (a) angry because booker was never angry about anything. at the end of the paragraph, booker states, "i think there are not many men in our country who have had the privilege of naming themselves in the way that i " i think that sentence kind of gives away the also, some words in the paragraph can also you like for example, "indulged," "calmly," "perplexity," "privilege," and defining words that you don't know, can you understand more of that paragraph and it can also increase your comprehension. : )

i'm really rally sorry if i'm incorrect, but if i'm hope this ! : )
