Answer:

Natasha had <u>been waiting</u> for half an hour before her friend arrived.

Explanation:

The tense we are looking for here is the past perfect continuous. It shows that an action that started in the past continued up until another moment or action in the past. In this particular sentence, we have two actions: Natasha waiting, followed by her friend arriving. As both actions took place in the past, one before the other, we have to use the combination of the past perfect (in this case continuous) and past (simple) tense.

Construction of the past perfect continuous tense: had been + the verb's present participle (root + -ing).

Odysseus ignores his men’s pleas to return to the ship. As a result, they face terrible consequences. How does Odysseus’s decisi
Norma-Jean [14]
THE ANSWER IS C. A great leader has great self-control and makes sound decisions. Odysseus, while B could have been an answer, he could not only rely on the opinions of his men, he had to make decisions that he thought were wise because he was their leader. In this instance, Od. had no self-control, letting his immense hubris override his decision making. And we know that he could have made a better decision because he is considered to be the wisest of the kings.
