As we celebrated the start of the evening festivities, our glasses ------------ and a toast was made by our host.
Correct answer
C
Rationale
The correct answer is 'C: Were raised.' In this context, the phrase 'our glasses were raised' is a common expression used to signify a toast or a celebratory gesture of raising glasses before drinking. 'Were rose' (B) is incorrect grammatically as 'rose' is the past tense of 'rise' and not 'raise.' 'Were risen' (A) is also incorrect. Choice (D) 'Arose' is not the appropriate form for this passive construction. Therefore, 'Were raised' is the correct choice.
