TOEIC Question III
0 I posted the following question long time ago. The thread has been locked but I am still confused about it. 02 br
02 br
01 font 01 b 00 The comptroller (A) 01 u 00 wanted 02 u 00 (B) 01 u 00 to know 02 u 00 if you (C) 01 u 00 checked over 02 u 00 the report he (D) 01 u 00 left 02 u 00 on your desk. 02 b 02 font 02 br
02 br
00 The given answer is (D) is incorrect, so I think it should be 01 font 01 u 01 b 00 had left 02 b 02 u 02 font 00 . 02 br

00 The given answer is (D) is incorrect, so I think it should be 01 font 01 u 01 b 00 had left 02 b 02 u 02 font 00 . 02 br

- 02 br
- 00 The above occurrences should be in the sequence of: 02 br
00 First: to leave the report on the desk 02 br
00 Second: to check over the report 02 br
00 Third: to want to know 02 br
00 Therefore, I wondered if I can change " 01 u 01 font 01 b 00 checked over 02 b 02 font 02 u 00 " to " 01 u 01 font 01 b 00 had checked over 02 b 02 font 02 u 00 " because this action happened before the comptroller wanted to know. 02 br
01 li - 00 If I can't change that, how about shorten the sentence to: 02 br
01 font 01 b 00 The comptroller (A) 01 u 00 wanted 02 u 00 (B) 01 u 00 to know 02 u 00 if you (C) 01 u 00 checked over 02 u 00 the report. 02 br
02 b 02 font 00 Can I use 01 u 00 01 font 01 b 00 had checked 02 b 02 font 02 u 00 over now? 02 li 02 br
01 li
02 br
00 Please kindly advise on these. 02 br

00 1. The comptroller (A) wanted (B) to know if you (C) had checked over the report he (D) left on your desk. 02 br

00 D ("the report he left") sounds fine to me. 02 br

00 The sentence reports: 02 br

00 2. "Have you checked over the report I left on your desk?" 02 br
