Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D. was moving

Explanation

A longer action in progress in the past is expressed in the past continuous ('was moving') when a shorter past action ('jumped off') happens during it, and 'while' usually takes the continuous form. Hence the answer is was moving.जब भूतकाल की किसी चलती हुई क्रिया के दौरान कोई छोटी क्रिया ('jumped off') घटती है, तो चलती क्रिया Past Continuous ('was moving') में आती है और 'while' के साथ प्रायः यही रूप प्रयुक्त होता है। अतः उत्तर was moving है।
