Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Correct Option
Option 2: feel exhausted; stayed
Detailed Explanation
The first blank requires a verb phrase to describe the current physical condition of the grandparents due to the heat, making "feel exhausted" the most appropriate choice. The second blank follows the phrase "I wish," which typically triggers the past simple tense to express a hypothetical situation in the present; therefore, "stayed" is the correct verb form.
