<p>My daughter has grown up in a military household, the pride and joy of her overly doing father.</p>
<p>f. no change
g. has been growing up
h. would have grown up
j. had grown up</p>
<p>I’m stuck between f and j…could you please explain the difference between has and had?</p>
<p>thanks!</p>
<p>sorry * overly doting</p>
<p>I would say F
with the ACT usually your first instinct is correct</p>
<p>Most likely the answer is F.
Has is more associated with the past participle (grown as it is used here is in the past participle)
had grown is impossible, grew is more appropriate.
Past: (Mike grew those flowers last winter)
Past participle (Mike has grown those flowers for over a decade)
I hope that helps.</p>
<p>Had grown is the correct form. Had grew is incorrect. </p>
<p>We need to see more of the paragraph to answer this, as I don’t think there is anything that can tell us to choose simple past over past perfect</p>
<p>I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. my daughter has grown up in a military household, the pride and joy of her overly doting father. He finds it perfectly appropriate that, from a very early age she has shared his love of aviation.</p>
<p>thanks guys!</p>
