Correct Answer: were already sold
Solution : The most appropriate option to substitute the underlined words is the fourth option.
The subject "coconuts" is plural, so the verb should also be plural, which is "were". "Were" is the correct past tense form to be used with a plural subject to maintain the subject-verb agreement and the tense consistency in the sentence.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: "When I reached the marketplace, the coconuts were already sold."
