AjiteshArun thanks for the other meaning I didn't know that
But how do we check for such verbs ? whether they are verbs or verbed mod ?

Your approach is fine.
In this particular case, when you asked yourself whether a restaurant can open (on its own), you needed to take the other meaning that we discussed into account. That would have given us a "yes" answer, and then you would have been open to considering opened a verb.

I restudy this problem and I want to say more about "there were ..." in choice a, b and c
choice A means
when the canal reached, the supplies of coal that was transfered..., exist
this is not the intended meaning.
so, if there is a split between "there is+ that-clause" and "noun+verb", the meaning can be totally different.
this case require us to understand "that clause". this restrictive clause means a subset of the nouns has some action. the pattern "there is...+that clause" normally dose not go with non-restrictive clause because the meaning error will be more easy to realize by cutting off the non-restrictive phrase. either restrictive or non restrictive clause go with this pattern, the meaning errors are similar because the focus is not action presented by a verb but the focus is the existence, which is presented by "is,are"
