English Tense Tense Question #5860 (CAT-I)

Last night, I ______ a strange dream.

A have had
B had
C was having
D have
Correct Answer & Explanation
Option B
• The phrase 'Last night' is a specific past time indicator. • Actions that happened at a definite time in the past are expressed in the Simple Past Tense. • The structure for Simple Past Tense is Subject + V2 (past form of the verb). • The past form of 'have' (in the sense of experiencing) is 'had'. Therefore, 'had' is the correct form.
