Respuesta :

should be  is what i answered on this test and it was right                                         

Answer:

The correct answer is option d) "should be paved".

Explanation:

A verb phrase is the part of the sentence that contains the verb and any auxiliary word preceding it. A verb phrase should not contain the noun or the subject of the sentence. In this example the verb is "paved" and the auxiliary words are "should be". Therefore the complete verb phrase is "should be paved".
