15. Before he came to Japan. This shows us that the action has ended and so has the importance of the action.
He has been practicing means he is still doing it and is in the middle of it. We want to stress the action before coming to Japan so
had been is correct. Had implies the action and importance of the action has passed.
Fourteen should be ate or had eaten.
There is a past tense in the end of the statement.
Thank you for answering!!!
In short, No8 of pencil mark is right.
No9 of pencil mark is right too. ...Right?????
Yes. In nine either the red or the pencil can be right. In eight the red mark is wrong.
How about No7?
You are welcome.
The red mark is right there.
Past tense at the end shows us we need it now. It implies the action was when the person was a child and now he or she is not a child.
If they had used:
I had been in Australia then it would be right too but they used
I have been in Australia and that with when I was a child is not correct. I was a child already happened. I have been means it is still important and I am still in Australia.
The red pen for number eight is wrong. The pencil mark was right.
Number nine, there was nothing wrong with the pencil answer depending on the context or situation it is said.
Number fourteen, is not right either.
