Select the most appropriate option to fill in blank No.3

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. would have.

  • As (when we were in Baroda) is in past tense, the coming part should also be in the same tense.
  • We have two options starting with the past tense.
  • But "would + have" will be the correct choice as it is the correct grammatical construction.

So, the chosen option will be correct.
