      Question

      Choose the most suitable option to fill in the blanks

      in the sentences below. The restaurant I had dinner at ___________ expensive, but the food and staff were great.
      A had been Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B were Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C is Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D was Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E will be Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Answer: d is correct. Let’s try to examine all options first. Options b is ruled out as ā€˜the restaurant’ is singular whereas ā€˜were’ denoted plurality. Option c is in the present tense whereas we already know that the sentence is in past tense. ā€˜Had been’ denotes a past continuous tense where the dinner is already over. Option ā€˜e’ is also unsuitable as the sentence is in past tense and ā€˜will be’ denotes future tense. Thus, we will reject options a, b and c.
