Question 1 Report

From the words or group of words lettered A to D, choose the word or group of words that best completes each of the following sentences.

if I _____ what actually happened, I would have punished him.

Answer Details
The correct answer is "had heard." This is because the sentence is in the past unreal conditional form, indicating a hypothetical situation in the past.

The correct verb form to use in this situation is "had heard," which is the past perfect form.
