B1-B2 Past perfect and past perfect continuous practise Part 1
Learning the past perfect and past perfect continuous tenses is valuable for describing actions or events that occurred before a specific moment in the past. These tenses help students create a clear timeline when discussing sequences of events, making it easier to show cause and effect or clarify the order of actions. For instance, the past perfect (“She had finished her work before the meeting began”) indicates a completed action before another past event, while the past perfect continuous (“They had been studying for hours when the exam started”) highlights the duration of an action leading up to a past moment. Mastering these tenses adds depth and accuracy to storytelling, explanations, and formal writing. Students read the sentences and work out which tense is required to complete the gap-fill using the verb in (). Answers on page 2.
