Fill in the blank, when I reached the station,the train ..........(leave)the platform?

Question

tense

Answer

"Leave" is present tense, so it doesn't match the rest of your sentence, which is past tense. It should be "left". When I reached the station, the train "left" the platform.

Answer

"was leaving"... is the answer....because, here in the question, then is "when+V2" which is "when +reached" and there is witness in the sentence.therefore, the answer should be in past continuous tense..............
