"The tigers <u>had been lying</u> in wait all morning."

The correct answer is perfect progressive tense.


Perfect progressive tense describes actions that took place in the past, and is still happening in the present, and/or will continue happening.

Progressive tense is an action that takes place in the past OR present Or future.

  • The tigers lied down in wait this morning. (past)
  • The tigers are lying down this morning. (present)
  • The tigers will lie down.  (future)

Perfect tense that started in the past and continues now.

  • I have learned a lot this semester. (present perfect)
  • I had learned a lot in elementary school. (past perfect)
  • I will have learned a lot when I finish college. (future perfect)
