(iii) (a)had suffered (b) was suffering (c) suffered (d) suffers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answers are as below:

(i) (b) had returned

(ii) (c) will be

(iii) (a) had suffered

Explanation:

• The auxiliary word had and the third form of verb combine to create the past perfect simple tense (past participle).

• The earlier completed action is made in the past perfect tense, and the latter completed action is made in the past indefinite tense (Simple Past Tense).
• There is use of the conjunctions "before" and "after." After the topic, we add the words had + not in negative sentences.
• The perfect verb tense is used to indicate that an activity is accomplished, perfected, and complete.
• The past participle form of the main verb is changed to this tense by adding one of the auxiliary verbs, such as have, has, or had.
