Discussion
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blanks.
I ________ the coffee before he ________.
Answer: A
The right pair is 'had made; arrived'. The coffee-making happened first and the arrival later, so the earlier action takes the past perfect 'had made' and the later action takes the simple past 'arrived': 'I had made the coffee before he arrived'. Using 'have made' brings in the present perfect, and 'had arrived' with 'before' reverses the order of the actions, so options B, C and D are wrong.
