Back to paper

Select the most appropriate segment to substitute the underlined words in the given sentence.

After he leave, we discussed his suggestion.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. he had left.

  • The phrase "he had left" is the most appropriate choice because it uses the past perfect tense, indicating that the action of leaving was completed before the subsequent action of discussing the suggestion.
  • This tense establishes the sequence of events in the past, showing that his departure occurred before the discussion.
  • The other options, "he will be leaving," "he has left," and "he was leaving," either suggest a different time frame or do not establish the correct sequence of past events.
