Answer:

Past Simple Tense: <em>Talks about a completed action in time before </em><em>now</em>

  • She washed her car
  • I saw a horror movie yesterday

Past continuous tense: <em>Past continuous </em><em>tense </em><em>is </em><em>formed </em><em>from </em><em>the </em><em>past </em><em>using </em><em>'to </em><em>be' </em><em>with </em><em>the </em><em>base </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>main </em><em>verb </em><em>ending </em><em>with </em><em> </em><em>'ing'</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>(</em><em><u>Subject </u></em><em><u>+</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>was/</u></em><em><u>were </u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>+</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>base </u></em><em><u>+</u></em><em><u>ing</u></em><em><u>)</u></em>

vampirchik [111]
As the passage is not added, it would refer to the text in general. 
It could be said that in his Declaration of Independence, Jefferson appealed to logic (option C) His detailed explanation of what was wrong about the government against colonies was based on a rational justification for the revolution. He expected the reader to follow his way of thinking, his reasoning.
