Had I not been sick, I _ to school.
Correct answer: C. Would have gone
- A. Go
- B. Went
- C. Would have gone
- D. Would go
Explanation
The correct answer is 'would have gone.' In the sentence, the speaker is talking about a hypothetical situation in the past (not being sick) that would have led to going to school. The correct form 'would have gone' is used to express this unrealized possibility. The other options do not fit the conditional structure required in the sentence.
