ENGL140 -ALNASHMI, Abdulraouf - Week 9 4/4

I took 27-8 quiz. It was about Verb tense and mood. It was so easy because I am quit good with grammar tense. There are some ex. Before Kate was three years old, she knew that there (are / were) nine planets in the solar system. The answer is the are choice because nine is plural and we use are with plural. I had two mistakes the first one is Our neighbor stood at the door looking so pale and ashen that we thought he (just saw / had just seen) a ghost. I thought the answer is just saw because it is kind of familiar for my tongue, but I was wrong because the past perfect tense is required for an action already completed by the time of another past action. The second mistake was Toni could be an excellent student if she (wasn't / weren't) so distracted by problems at home. I chose wasn't because the pronoun she, but I forget that with the conductional we use were with she, he and it.
