In the following question, the sentence given with a blank is to be filled in with an appropriate word. Select the correct alternative out of the four and indicate it by selecting the appropriate option.She _______ farewell to her parents.

The correct choice is option A.The phrase "to bid farewell" is an idiomatic expression that means to say goodbye. The word 'bid' acts as the past tense form here (historically 'bade', but 'bid' is commonly accepted and used in modern English contexts), making it the only grammatically and contextually correct fit. Options like 'call', 'told', and 'shout' do not collocate with 'farewell' in this manner.
