    Question

    It was at a juvenile correctional facility that he had

    been introduced to boxing. In the given question a phrase of the sentence is printed in bold which needs to be replaced. Among the given options choose the option that can replace the given phrase and make it grammatically and contextually meaningful. If no replacement is required and the sentence is correct in its original form, then mark option 5 i.e., 'no replacement required' as the answer.
    A he has being introduced Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B he were introduced Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C he was introduced Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D he had been introducing Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E No correction required Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The sentence refers to a past event, so the simple past tense "was introduced" is correct. The other options are incorrect because: (1) he has being introduced is grammatically incorrect. (2) he were introduced uses the wrong form "were" for a singular subject. (4) he had been introducing suggests ongoing action, which doesn't fit the context.
