Complete the sentence: We _ (visit) the lake many times before, but we enjoyed ourselves the most this time.
Correct answer: D. Had visited
- A. Visit
- B. Have visited
- C. Visited
- D. Had visited
Explanation
The sentence is talking about a past activity hence the missing word should be in the past tense. 'Have' is used in the case of plural [incorrect in this case as one lake (singular visited)] and 'visit' is present tense hence incorrect. 'Visited' doesn't make grammatical sense when the sentence is said out loud. Hence 'had visited' is the most suitable option.
