Choose the correct option to answer the following :
Her brother _______ , before he reached there.

a

went

b

goes

c

will be going

d

had gone

✓ Correct answer: d)

had gone

Explanation

Correct Answer: (D) had gone

Explanation:
The phrase “before he reached there” shows that one action happened earlier than another action in the past.

To show an earlier past action, we use the Past Perfect Tense (had + past participle).

So the correct sentence is:
“Her brother had gone before he reached there.”
