In the following question, out of the four alternatives, select the alternative which will improve the bracketed part of the sentence. In case no improvement is needed, select "no improvement". A small makeshift stage (was construct) with a red curtain for a backdrop.  Correct Answer <span style="font-family:helvetica,helvetica_msfontservice,sans-serif">was constructed</span>

Option 1 is incorrect as the stage in context is singular and "are" is used which is incorrect. Similarly, option 3 is also incorrect as "were" is used. The correct option is "was constructed" because the "stage" in context is singular and the context of the statement is in past.
