- A.
  
  I had been eating
- B.
  
  I was eating
- C.
  
  I am eating
- D.
  
  I have been eating
Correct Answer
B. I was eating

Explanation
The correct answer is "I was eating." This is because the past continuous tense "was eating" is used to describe an ongoing action that was interrupted by another action, in this case, the phone ringing. The other options ("I had been eating," "I am eating," "I have been eating") do not fit the context of the sentence as they do not indicate an interruption in the action of eating.
