Verified by Toppr
Option C is the correct answer because the statement is in the past tense, so it is correct to use ‘was feelimg’ as ‘was’ is the past tense of ‘is’.
Option A is incorrect because ‘felt’ would mean that she replied that she felt better only before and not anymore.
Option B is incorrect because ‘feeling’ is in the present tense while the statement is in the past tense.
Option D is incorrect because ‘feel’ is to experience something, and is used in the present tense while the statement is in the past tense.
