Answer 2

The fire had burnt the huts before the fire brigade came. (option a)

Sunil, as well as his brothers, were here for the show. (option c)

• In the first sentence, we are talking about something that happened in the past in the present tense. So we use, 'were' to denote the situation.
• In the second sentence, we are talking about Sunil and his brothers, so they refer to a plural noun. Also, we are talking about something that happened in the past. So, 'were' is the most suitable verb to fill in the blank.
