Choose the correct tense form of the verb to complete the sentence.

They ____ hard every afternoon.
A. work
B. worked
C. will work
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

In the given sentence, we can clearly see the use of the word ‘every,’ which denotes that the action happens daily or is a habit.

Also, we know that, to make the simple present form of a verb, we add ‘s’ at the end if it is singular, or keep it as it is if it is plural.

The only exception to this rule is that if we are using “I” or “you,” we use the plural form of the verb.

So, the correct answer is:

They work hard every afternoon.
