"<span>C. The street was lined with maple, oak, and beech trees; and in the park there were elms, cedars, and pines" is correct, although it would be possible to replace the semicolon with a comma. </span>
The answer is D. You have to keep the verb tenses the same as well as active/passive voice. For 'A', you have active voice/passive voice. For 'B' and 'C', the verb tenses are not the same (b is present tense/past tense and c is past tense and past perfect tense). 'D' can be the only correct answer in following grammar rules.
