Answer:

had rained

Explanation:

Past perfect tenses are used to show that an event occurred before a specific time in the past. Formation of the past perfect tense entails a combination of the past tense of the verb to have, with the past participle of the verb being talked about.

In the sentence above, had is merged with rained to form the past perfect tense. Therefore, the correct sentence is;

The ground was wet because it had rained.

Imagine that a person has approached you and asked to borrow a substantial sum of money. What would you want to know about this
EastWind [94]

Answer:

I would want to know who they are; Whats their name, where they work, why they need money, where they live. Assuming that we are strangers, I would want a basic idea of who this person is. Also, based on how they answer and what their answers are, I can judge their character to the best of my abilities. Besides basic information, I would also want to know what their intentions are with the money: How will they spend, are they spending it all in one place, is it being used for something to help meet basic needs? I would not want to give money to someone who will use towards illegal activity, nor would I want someone using my hard earned ash towards personal benefit(negative) Such as; shopping sprees, hair/nail/spa treatments, vacations and etc. Even though I asked a bunch of questions already, I would also want to know why they are asking me/ strangers for money, instead of earning it themselves? What is preventing them from getting this money themselves.
