Model Answer

(b) speaks

Reena always speaks the truth. (Simple Present Tense; singular subject "Reena" takes verb + s.)

Explanation

"Always" signals a habitual action → Simple Present Tense. With a third-person singular subject (Reena = she), the verb must have -s: speaks. Options (a), (c), and (d) are incorrect forms for this context.
