Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.
He had ________ the ________ into smaller clips.

Question

Accepted Answer

The sentence is in the past perfect tense indicated by 'He had'. The verb following 'had' should be in the past participle form. 'Clipped' is the past participle of 'clip'. The second blank requires a noun that can be divided into smaller parts, so 'clipping' (meaning a piece cut from something) fits well. Hence, 'He had clipped the clipping into smaller clips' is grammatically correct and meaningful.
