Question 5 • LHS English 10

Read the sentence.Keisha will run in the spring 5K race, so she had started a training program next Monday.Which correction of the underlined verb phrase fixes the inappropriate shift in tense in this sentence?

Answer
A
started
B
will have started
C
will start
D
has started

Explanation

“Next Monday” refers to a future time, matching “will run” in the first part of the sentence. The verb phrase should therefore be “will start”: “Keisha will run in the spring 5K race, so she will start a training program next Monday.” “Had started” places the training in the past, which does not fit the sentence’s timeline.
