Answer:

8.

(a) arrived

(b) was told

(c) would be covered

(d) was

(e) asked

(f) said

(g) hasn't been

(h) had come

Explanation:

  • The given paragraph is in the past tense.
  • It describes an incident that has already taken place.
  • The speaker speaks of his trip which he had been to the previous year.
  • Thus, the past tense form of 'arrive'- arrived is used.
  • The second sentence shows that the information was already given to the speaker, hence, 'was told' and 'would be covered' are used.
  • Later, the situation experienced by the speaker was described, thus past tense forms- was, asked, said are used.
  • Later, the present perfect tense- hasn't been and the past perfect tense- had come is used to complete the sentence.
