Question

Choose the option that best corrects the sentence at the underlined point:
He flew to Prague on Monday, arriving there on Tuesday.

• A. and arriving there on Tuesday
• B. and arrived there on Tuesday
• C. , arrived there on Tuesday
• D. NO CHANGE

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

and arrived there on Tuesday

Choice B is correct. The sentence is in past tense. The word 'flew' has to have a past tense in the second half of the sentence. Choice A is wrong as the verb 'arrive' is in present continuous. Choice C is wrong as the phrase is incomplete. Choice D is wrong as the verb is again in present continuous. Hence, choice B is correct.
