Explanation:
- The tense of a Verb shows the time frame of an action or event.
- Thus there are three main Tenses - The Present, The Past, and The Future.
Simple Past Tense
- The Simple Past is used to indicate an action completed in the past.
- Sometimes this tense is used with no adverb of time. In such cases, the time may be either implied or indicated by the context.
- The Simple Past is also used in case of the past habits.
Past Continuous Tense
- The Past Continuouspast progressive tense is used to denote an action going on at some time in the past.
- The time of the action may or may not be indicated.
- This tense is used with always, continually, etc. for persistent habits in the past.
Past Perfect Tense
- The Past Perfect simple tense describes an action completed before a certain moment in the past; such as,
- If two actions happened in the past, it may be necessary to show which one occurred earlier than the other. This tense is mainly used in such situations.
- Simple Past is used in one clause and the Past Perfect in the other; as, When I reached the station the train had started (so I couldn't get on the train).
Past Perfect Continuous Tense
- The Past Perfect Continuous is used for an action that began before a certain point in the past and continued up to that time; such as, At that time she had been writing a book for three months.
Therefore, the correct paragraph is as follows-
1. Mary Kom (i) won the bronze medal at the London Olympics. She (b) (ii) started her career at a very young age and (c) (iv) drew inspiration from the veteran Indian boxer, Dingko Singh.
Women's Boxing (d) (ii) was introduced for the first time in the Olympics when it was held in London. She (e) (ii) had practised well before participating in the Olympics. In fact, she (f) (iii) had been training for a long time before she took the big leap.
