Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Correct sentence: 15 km is not considered a long distance, especially these days.
Explanation –
Treat a distance as a singular noun: use the singular verb "is" (not "were" or "have").
Use the passive or simple present passive correctly: either "is not considered" or "has not been considered" (if past relevance is intended).
Stylistic notes: omit "as" after "considered" (or say "considered a long distance"). Prefer "especially these days" or "nowadays" rather than "in these days."
Remove unrelated or incorrect additional clauses. For example, the clause "They now walked on in silence, both of them were thinking" is unrelated and contains a tense error ("now walked"); omit or rewrite it if needed for context.
