past perfect

Since I (to be) seven years old, I (to want) to be a doctor.

1. was / wanted
2. have been / have wanted
3. have been / wanted
4. was / have wanted

Explanation:

Since that moment (the age of 7, which is in the past - 'finished time'), this person 'has wanted' to be a doctor.

Dat moment is in het verleden (past simple), maar de persoon wil nog steeds arts worden (present perfect)

Fred's parents (to feel) sad when they heard that he (to spend) all their money.

1. felt / had spent
2. had felt / spent
3. had felt / had spend
4. felt / has spent

Explanation:

When they heard = een moment in het verleden (staat ook in de past simple) --> they felt

Daarvoor is nog iets anders gebeurd.

Het moment dat het verste in het verleden ligt, moet in de past perfect staan (had spent).

(you - to forget) what you (to promise) me last week?

1. Are you forgotten / have promised
2. Have you forgot / promised
3. Have you forgotten / promised
4. Did you forget / have promised

I (never - to expect) this until I (to see) it with my own eyes.

1. never expected / saw
2. have never expected / saw
3. had never expected / saw
4. never expected / have seen

Explanation:

never = signaalwoord voor present perfect, maar ook voor past perfect!

"until I saw" = tot het moment dat ik (= een moment in het verleden, dus: past simple)

Daarvoor had je het nooit verwacht.

I (just - to have) a meeting in town. There (to be) fifty people present.

1. have just had / have been
2. have just had / were
3. had just had / have been
4. just had / were

Explanation:

just = signaalwoord voor present perfect (have just had)

There were fifty people present: nu ga je het specifiek over die vergadering hebben, en die ligt nu in het verleden --> past simple
