Choose from the options lettered A – E,the most appropriate form of the verb (using the recent past) to complete the following sentences. Bola: Je suis en retard? Tom: Non.

  1. nous n’avons pas commencé. ✓
  2. nous ne finissons pas.
  3. nous venons de Commencer.
  4. tu arrives tôt.

Explanation

When Bola asks “Je suis en retard?” (Am I late?), Tom responds “Non, nous n’avons pas commencé” (No, we haven’t started). This is the passé composé form using avoir + past participle to indicate they have not yet begun.

The response makes sense – if they haven’t started, then Bola is not late. The other options don’t logically answer the question about being late.
