- A.
Lose - lost - lose

The correct answer is "lose - lost - lost" because "lose" is the base form of the verb, "lost" is the past simple form, and "lost" is also the past participle form. The verb "lose" does not change its form in the past simple and past participle tenses. The option "lose - lost - lose" is incorrect because "lose" should not change to "lose" in the past participle form. The option "lose - loose - lost" is also incorrect because "loose" is a different word with a different meaning, and it does not fit the verb tense pattern.Rate this question:
