    I asked him for some paper, but he __________ .

    Solutions

    The given sentence is in simple past tense. Here, the verb "have" will be used as a main verb and not as an auxiliary verb. Since the sentence is in simple past tense, we will take the Vform of "have", i.e. had. The use of conjunction "but" shows the opposite of what was expected in the first part of the sentence. Therefore, we will use "none" here. Hence, option C is the correct answer.
