Question

Which of the following is not in the past perfect tense?

  1. “Had she ever been in this bar before today?”
  2. “He hadn’t seen her when he first came in.”
  3. “Never before had he met someone so interesting.”
  4. “He had a strong hope that they would meet again.”

hintHint:

This tense is used when out of two actions it is necessary to emphasize that the preceding action was completely finished before the succeeding action started.

The correct answer is: “He had a strong hope that they would meet again.”


    the formula of the past perfect tense is had + past participle. It doesn't matter if the subject is singular or plural, the formula does not change. 'He had a strong hope that they would meet again", in this sentence subject is 'he' and 'had' is there but there is no past participle form. So, it is not past perfect tense.
