Question
Johnny ___________ eight years old when his dad __________ him at the park.A.were about - had leaveB.is about - leaveC.were about - leftD.was about - left
Solution
The correct answer is D. "was about - left".
Here's why:
-
We use "was" instead of "were" because "Johnny" is a singular subject.
-
"About" is correct as it indicates approximation.
-
We use "left" instead of "leave" or "had leave" because the sentence is in the past tense. The action of his dad leaving him at the park has already happened.
So, "Johnny was about eight years old when his dad left him at the park" is the correct sentence.
