Option 3 : C
The correct answer is C
- The given sentence is a conditional sentence.
- Conditional sentences are used to express that the action in the main clause (without if) can only take place if a certain condition (in the clause with if) is fulfilled.
- If the 'if clause' is in the past perfect tense, the following structure is followed:
- If + Sub + had + v3.............would have + v3
(OR) - Had + Sub + v3.................would have + v3
- If + Sub + had + v3.............would have + v3
- According to the rule given above, 'would have' will be used instead of 'could have'.
Correct Sentence: Had I realized your house was such a long way off, I would have taken a taxi.
- The past perfect tense is used to talk about actions that were completed before some point in the past.
- 'Had + v3' is used in the past perfect tense.
- E.g. I had met him before the event.
