Discussion
The new witness _______ yesterday and the judge _______ the investigations early this morning.
Answer: A
The answer is arrived, started: 'The new witness arrived yesterday and the judge started the investigations early this morning.'
Both actions are completed at stated past times, 'yesterday' and 'early this morning', so both take the simple past.
'Starting' is not a finite verb. 'Have arrived' cannot go with 'yesterday', since the present perfect does not take a specific past time, and 'would be start' and 'had start' are ungrammatical; 'had arrived' would also need a later past event to refer to.
