comment | We use the past tense to talk about something that happened once in the past - a completed action in a time before now. Duration is not important: Sally watched TV last night.; Did you play tennis at weekends?. It can also be used for actions taking place one after another or in the middle of another action: She entered a cafe, took off her coat, sat down and took the menu.; Roby fell off the tree and her friends took her to a doctor.In the test sentence ‘First of all, we visited the British Museum, then we went to Hyde Park and last we______ (to relax) in a restaurant.’. we need to form the past form of the regular verb ‘relax’. For regular verbs, we add -ed to the base form of the verb (work – worked) or -d if the verb already ends in e (move – moved). Therefore, we are to choose ANSWER 2 (relaxed). |
