Medal & fan Which answer best describes the verb tenses in the sentence? By the time we got to Austin, the puppy falls asleep in the back of the van. A. The verb tenses shift. B. The verb tenses are consistent.

OpenStudy (snopet):

Hi there! Alright, so if the verb tenses shift that means it would switch from past tense to present tense and vice versa. If the verb tenses are consistent that means that it always stays either past tense or present tense. Take a look at the question and try to figure out the answer based on these meanings (;

OpenStudy (ilikepizzaaa):

A?

OpenStudy (snopet):

That's right! "By the time we got to Austin," is past tense, but" the puppy falls asleep in the back of the van." is present tense meaning that verb tenses shift! Good job!
