The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Hanging

Explanation.

Looking at the given sentence we find that:

  • The verb see is in the present tense
  • The verb see and the phrase a curtain of fog denotes a continuous process indicating that an -ing form verb should be used. 
  • To denote a present continuous tense we should use the present participle (-ing) form of the verb. 

Hence we find that the correct option to be used here is Option 3 Hanging which is the right answer.

Thus the correct sentence will be: You see a curtain of fog hanging low, suspended over the fresh green grass.
