- "Sell" is the correct verb, and since the question is in the past tense, we use "did" as the auxiliary verb.

c) My uncle taught me how to drive when I was 16.
- "Teach" is the correct verb, and since the action happened in the past, we use the past tense "taught."

h) Jeet spent lots of money last week. Among other things, he bought a pair of jeans for which he paid Rs. 2,500.
- "Spend," "buy," and "pay" are the correct verbs. All actions happened in the past, so we use their past tense forms.
