what can you cancel out?

canadiansteve99 · Answer

Well, since it's past tense, it would most likely be C or D

canadiansteve99 · Answer

*face palm* I'm an idiot.

kidrah69 · Answer

im not sure actually :/ it can be all of them

hysusonic · Answer

nope it can only be one of them... think of it as a math equation and they are giving you the value of X try plugging them into the sentence

kidrah69 · Answer

i did and they all make sense .-.

hysusonic · Answer

oh gosh idk how to explain it but i found the most fitting answer is C

kidrah69 · Answer

I dont take direct answers i need something to help me understand...

hysusonic · Answer

is that all they gave you? no instruction or anything?

kidrah69 · Answer

no it says which words best fits .-.

canadiansteve99 · Answer

It's past tense. Go with that bruh. "Would have" implies that it has happened already

kidrah69 · Answer

?

hysusonic · Answer

well not exactly.... you can still pass if you don't understand 1 question but as steve was saying, it's past tense (most likely) so you only have a few choices that are past tense which are B, C, and D.

B is saying did "I am sure I would have regretted it did agree to take the job."
that sounds a little off to me

kidrah69 · Answer

would have agreed?

thesmartone · Answer

exactly, that would be the one that would most fit the sentence :)

hysusonic · Answer

*cough* i said that *cough*

thesmartone · Answer

the would have is kind of parallel structure, and it also keeps up with the past present tense :)

kidrah69 · Answer

*cough cough"  explaining it is better than guessing.
