Choose the grammatically correct sentence.

  • A.The teaching staff must take their lectures regularly when are asked by the Principal.
  • B.The teaching staff had they known that the Principal would come to know about it.
  • C.The teaching staff would have taken lectures regularly had they known that the Principal would know about it.
  • D.Many irregularities were found in their lectures by the Principal and he could not be disregarded them.

Answer: C

Correct answer: The teaching staff would have taken lectures regularly had they known that the Principal would know about it.

The conditional is inverted rather than introduced by if - had they known - which is standard, and the main clause has its would have + participle.

Why the others fail:

  • when are asked by the Principal - the subject of the clause is missing.
  • The teaching staff had they known that… - the sentence never reaches a main clause.
  • he could not be disregarded them - a passive and an object in the same clause.
