choose the correct answer
Most appropriate tense for We _ Elagiri last summer. a) visit b) visited c) will visit d) had visited​

Answer 1

Answer:

The most appropriate tense to be filled in the blank is visited.

We visited Elagiri last summer.

Explanation:

• Here the word 'last' indicates that the action happened in the past.
• Thus it is a clear case of simple past tense (preterite), which is most often preferred to talk about an already completed action in a time before now.

• In English grammar, the simple past is the basic form of past tense. The time of the action can be in the recent past or the distant past and action duration is not important.

• Here Option d) 'Had visited' is used in the past perfect tense. Thus it is incorrect.

• Option a) visit indicates the present tense, hence it is incorrect.

• Option c) will visit shows future tense which is also incorrect.

• Option b) 'Visited' is used in the simple past tense as it is the past form of the verb 'visit'. And it is important to note that the speaker has mentioned something related to the past.

Therefore the most appropriate tense to be filled in the blank is visited.
