Question

He _________ (visit) the zoo last Monday. *

(a) visits

(b) visited

(c) had visited

(d) was visiting​

Answer 1

He visited the zoo last Monday.

• The sentence describes an action that occurred in the past.

• In English Grammar, past tense shows an action that occurred in the past.
• Hence, the past tense 'visited' will be used to fill in the blank.
• Other options, such as option c, is incorrect because past perfect tense is used for sentences which determine an action in the past that occurred before another action in the past.
