[amp_mcq option1=”Go\/had been doing” option2=”Went\/was doing” option3=”Gone\/had been doing” option4=”Went\/were doing” correct=”option2″]<\/p>\n
The correct answer is: B. Went\/was doing<\/p>\n
The warden went into the room to see what the students were doing. The simple past tense is used to describe a completed action in the past. The past progressive tense is used to describe an action that was in progress at a specific time in the past. In this case, the warden went into the room at a specific time in the past (when the students were doing something) to see what they were doing.<\/p>\n
A. Go\/had been doing is incorrect because the simple past tense cannot be used with the past perfect progressive tense.
\nC. Gone\/had been doing is incorrect because the past participle “gone” cannot be used with the past perfect progressive tense.
\nD. Went\/were doing is incorrect because the simple past tense cannot be used with the past progressive tense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
