| Task | Jake ______ (to come) home totally exhausted. He _______ (to drive) all day long. |
|---|---|
| Answer | 3 |
| a | came / had driven |
| b | had come / had driven |
| c | came / had been driving |
| d | came / was driving |
| comment | 1. We use the Past Simple for short complete actions in the past - he came home. 2. The most appropriate tense for the second part is, the Past Perfect Continuous - because we certainly want to emphasize the process, not the result. |
