Before the Civil War, Harriet Tubman, along with other former slaves and white abolitionists, helped create what had become known as the Underground Railroad, and were responsible for leading hundreds, if not thousands, of slaves to freedom.

A] had become known as the Underground Railroad, and were

B] would become known as the Underground Railroad, and were

C] had become known as the Underground Railroad, and was

D] has been becoming known as the Underground Railroad, and was

E] would become known as the Underground Railroad, and was




[spoiler]OA is E:[/spoiler]

it is a good question on tenses. I got puzzled at the first time.

Good one!!

Here is my analysis-

"responsible for leading hundreds, if not thousands, of slaves to freedom" is being used for railroad there for was should be used instead of were.

This eliminates options A and B.

Amongst the rest "would become" is a natural choice :)
So [spoiler][E][/spoiler] is correct.
If you feel like it, hit thanks :)
