B Correct answer
Explanation

The sentence is in past tense as verb ‘came’ has been used, so past progressive tense (was/were + V1 + ing) will be used. Option 1 is incorrect, as it is in present progressive tense. Option 2 is correct, as 'was listening' is correct here. Option 3 is incorrect, as it is in past indefinite tense. Option 4 is incorrect, as it is in present indefinite tense.
