–“A Latina Judge’s Voice,”

Sonia Sotomayor

The fleet with the wedding party on board sailed southward on the China Sea. It was a long and perilous voyage. Stops were made
Marta_Voda [28]
The best answer here is choice B. We can determine this because of the tense used throughout the passage itself. Bearing this in mind, choice B matches the tense perfectly. 

Choice A does not work at all because the verb "am" makes no sense in the context of the sentence. The same is true for choice C. The passage is not in present tense, so it cannot be this choice. Choice D could make sense, except that this is in the future tense versus the past tense.
