A
has not seen

B

It is the case of compound sentence in past tense. Here, the principal clause demands past perfect tense as the subsidiary clause is in the past indefinite tense.

The train ________ New Delhi at 4.30 in the evening.

1 / -0

Mark the most suitable option to fill in the blank.

I ______ letters at that time.

A
would write

B
was writing

C
had written

D
had been writing

Solution

'At' indicates point of time. 'That time' indicates happening at a different time (past). So, we need to use a verb form that indicates 'happening' at that particular time. This is best indicated by past continuous 'was writing'. So, we will use 'was/were + verb + ing' in this case.

We ______ (eat) dinner before he came.

have eaten

Here, the principal clause demands past perfect tense, to describe the earlier event, as the subsidiary clause is in the past indefinite tense.

1 / -0

Solution

With 'had' third form of verb or 'being + third form is used'. Option 1 is incorrect as it is ungrammatical. Only option 3 fits with 'had'. Case of past perfect continuous tense: we use 'had + been + verb+ing' in such cases.
