Question
Ann (wait) for me when I (arrive).a.waited, had arrivedb.waited, arrivedc.was waiting, arrivedd.had been waiting, arrived
Solution
The correct answer is c. was waiting, arrived.
This is because the sentence is in the past continuous tense, which is used to indicate that a longer action in the past was interrupted. The interruption is usually a shorter action in the simple past. 'Was waiting' is the longer action and 'arrived' is the shorter action that interrupts the first.
