Question

Which sentence has an inappropriate shift in verb tense?

Chloe's whole family laughs whenever she told the funny story.

Diego had finished his schoolwork before he went to the zoo.

Miguel will have traveled to ten countries by the time he turns seven.

After Caleb eats lunch, he will visit the park.

Answer 1

Answer:

First option: Chloe's whole family laughs whenever she told the funny story.

Explanation:

The sentence starts out in present/progressive tense, but by adding told (which is past tense of tell) it makes it incorrect. It woukd be correct if it was "Chloe's whole family laughs whenever she tells the funny story."

Hope this helps :)
