Question

Which verb fits this sentence the best?

Even though Janet _____ the vase, she blamed it on the cat.
A) break
Eliminate
B) broke
C) broken
D) have broke

Answer 1

answer: B) broke

explanation:

This is the only option that flows well when you read it, and has proper grammar. Using context clues like "Even though" and "blamed it on the cat" we can tell that she already broke it, so it can't be A. It can't be C because it would need "had" in front of it to make sense grammatically. Similar with D, "have broke" would need to be "had" for it to make sense grammatically.
