Correct Answer :
D
Solution :
The correct option is D.
Explanation:
The given sentence is set in the past tense, as indicated by the past auxiliary verb "was" in part (A) and the past perfect phrase "had already finalized" in part (C).
To maintain sequence of tenses and grammatical consistency throughout the past context, the simple past tense form "arrived" should be used instead of the present simple tense form "arrive" in part (D).
Correct Sentence:
"The architect was oblivious to the fact that her team had already finalized the blueprints before she arrived at the venue."
