first, only two of the options are verbs at all! in order to be an action verb, a word must be a verb in the first place.

So we can reject options A and D: they are nouns.

Among B and C C is the correct option: it is an action verb, it refers to an action (dancing).

"was" here describes a state, not an action, so it's not the correct answer.
