Asked by Annabeth Chase

Hello could anyone check my work on the following question?

Read the two sentences
He completed his assignment. Then he submitted it to his teacher.
Which sentence combines the two sentences using a past participle?
A.) He submitted the completed assignment to his teacher
B.) He completed his assignment and then submitted it to his teacher
C.)Before he submitted it to his teacher he completed his assignment
D.) He submitted the assignment to his teacher after he completed it
I believe the answer is D

When a verb form is being used as a past participle, it's being used as an adjective. It is not being used as part of a main verb or a verb in a subordinate clause.

So … which sentence (not D) has a past participle in it, being used as an adjective?
Answered by Annabeth Chase
Oh I'm sorry. Would A be correct then?
Answered by Writeacher
Yes! The verb form "completed" is a past participle being used to describe "assignment."
