No correction required.<\/p>\n<p>The sentence &#8220;When I lived in Allahabad, I was going to cinema once a week&#8221; is in the past continuous tense. This tense is used to talk about an action that was happening at a specific time in the past. In this case, the speaker is talking about an action that was happening regularly in the past, namely going to the cinema once a week.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they do not express the same meaning as the original sentence.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option A, &#8220;went&#8221;, is in the simple past tense. This tense is used to talk about an action that happened at a specific time in the past. In this case, the speaker would be saying that they went to the cinema once a week, but not that they were going to the cinema once a week.<\/li>\n<li>Option B, &#8220;had been going&#8221;, is in the past perfect continuous tense. This tense is used to talk about an action that had been happening for some time before a specific time in the past. In this case, the speaker would be saying that they had been going to the cinema for some time before they left Allahabad.<\/li>\n<li>Option C, &#8220;had gone&#8221;, is in the past perfect tense. This tense is used to talk about an action that happened before a specific time in the past. In this case, the speaker would be saying that they had gone to the cinema before they left Allahabad.<\/li>\n<li>Option D, &#8220;used to be going&#8221;, is in the past habitual tense. This tense is used to talk about an action that happened regularly in the past, but does not happen anymore. In this case, the speaker would be saying that they used to go to the cinema once a week, but they do not go anymore.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;went&#8221; option2=&#8221;had been going&#8221; option3=&#8221;had gone&#8221; option4=&#8221;used to be going E.
