Resposta esperada

A model response could be: 'I decided to go to the party last night.' The pronunciation of 'decided' is /d/, as it ends with a voiced sound.

Explicação

A frase utiliza o verbo 'decide' no passado, que é 'decided', demonstrando o uso adequado do tempo verbal. A pronúncia do sufixo '-ed' é /d/ porque o verbo termina em um som de vogal sonora, que é 'd'. Essa regra de pronúncia se aplica a verbos que terminam em sons vozeados, como 'decide'.
