To fill in the blanks with the correct forms of the verbs in parentheses, we need to use the past tense because the context of the sentences implies that the actions have already been completed. Let's go through each sentence one by one:

I played (play) the guitar in the band last night.


The verb 'play' is in its past tense form, 'played', which is already provided in the sentence.


They went (go) to Paris.


The past tense of 'go' is 'went'.


She gave (give) me a gift.


The past tense of 'give' is 'gave'.


We phoned (phone) to Luke.


The past tense of 'phone' is 'phoned'.


He invited (invite) me to his party.


The past tense of 'invite' is 'invited'.


They swam (swim) in the cold river.


The past tense of 'swim' is 'swam'.


My mom bought (buy) me so pretty necklace.


The correct form should be 'bought' because 'buy' in its past tense is 'bought'. It looks like there's a typo in the sentence ('so' should be 'a'). Corrected: My mom bought me a pretty necklace.


Luke repaired (repair) his car alone.


The past tense of 'repair' is 'repaired'.

By using the past tense, we are indicating that these actions have already happened at a specific point in time, which aligns with the clues given in the sentences such as 'last night' and context where actions are completed.
