Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:

Last summer we ____ a trip to Houston.

• A. made
• B. has made
• C. are making
• D. shall make
• E. will be making

Answer 1

The correct option is A made

The word 'last' indicates that the action was completed in the past. Hence we will use simple past tense here.

Option B - 'Has made' is used in the present perfect tense. Thus option B is incorrect.

Option C - 'Are making' is used in the present continuous tense. Thus option C is incorrect.

Option D - 'Shall make' is used in the simple future tense. Thus option D is incorrect.

Option E - 'Will be making' is used in the future continuous tense. Thus option E is incorrect.

Option A - 'Made' is used in the simple past tense as it is the past form of the verb 'make'. Thus option A is the correct answer.

'Last summer we made a trip to Houston.'
