Question

He'd had a car like the one he bought last week. The expanded form of 'He'd' is:

• A. He did
• B. He had
• C. He could
• D. He would

Answer 1

Answer:

D. He would

The expanded form of "He'd" in the sentence "He'd had a car like the one he bought last week" is "He had".

Explanation:

• In this context, "He'd" is a contraction of "He had" (past perfect tense).

• The sentence suggests that in the past, he had owned a car, similar to the one he bought last week.

However, "He'd" can also be a contraction of "He would" in different contexts (e.g., "He'd go to the store if he had time"), but in this specific sentence, the correct expansion is "He had".
