Choose the correct option to fill in the blank. I ________ to Paris l…

The correct answer is Option (1) → did not go

Negative of the simple past tense:

• "Last year" marks a finished time in the past, so the verb is in the simple past.
• The negative is formed with did not + base form of the verb:
  • "Did" already carries the past tense.
  • So the main verb stays in its base form: go, not "went".

Complete sentence: I did not go to Paris last year.

Why the Other Options are Incorrect?

Option 2: did not went — Incorrect. The past tense is shown twice. After "did" the verb must be the base form go.

Option 3: never went go — Incorrect. It puts two main verbs, "went" and "go", side by side, which is not grammatical.

Option 4: never go — Incorrect. "Never go" is in the present tense and speaks of a habit. It cannot go with "last year".
