Ahad left
Bleft
Chas been left
Dhad been left
Answer:
A. had left
Read Explanation:
✅ had left → ✔ Correct
This is past perfect tense.
We use past perfect to show that the train’s departure happened before I arrived at the station.
👉 "When I arrived at the station, the train had left."
❌ left →
This is simple past.
It suggests the train left at the same time as I arrived, which is not the usual meaning in this context.
❌ has been left →
This is present perfect passive.
It means someone has left the train (behind) — not suitable here. Also, mixing present perfect with a past time (when I arrived) is grammatically wrong.
❌ had been left →
This is past perfect passive.
Means the train had been abandoned or left by someone — illogical in this situation.
Final correct sentence:
👉 "When I arrived at the station, the train had left."
