Solution
The correct option is C had thought Here, 'had thought' in Past Perfect Tense is correct because it is
used to indicate a completed action of the past that happened before another event
took place. 'Thought' in simple past is incorrect because it indicates
an action that has already been completed. 'Think' in present simple is incorrect because it is
used to indicate a future event on a designated date as part of a plan.
'Have thought' in present perfect is incorrect because it
is used to indicate an action which started in the past and has continued up
untill now.
