We don't do your homework for you Charbel13.

If you show us your attempt first we will help.

If you're not sure how to do it, let's try looking at one of the sentences as an example.

First, what tense are we in? The directions aren't listed. Well that is bad, we'll just have to decide a tense for ourselves. Let's go with preterit.

El coche ____ delante de un supermercado.

The car ____ in front of a supermarket.

What do you think the car did/does?

Does it enter, leave, rise/get in, get down/go/get out of, open, depart/divide from, or stop in front of the supermarket?

I would say it stopped.

So I go check out the page for conjugations of detener Hey, look at that, it has a similar conjugation as tener and estar in the preterit.

So, the car is a third person subject, which means we need to use the third person conjugation for detener, which as the conjugation table shows us is detuvo. However, since we're saying "the car stopped" we have to use "se" since the car is both performing the action and receiving the action of the verb (it stopped itself).

So the correct conjugation is se detuvo.

And because you'll probably need to know this, subir can mean "get into" a car. and "bajarse" can mean "get out of/get off of" a car.
