select the correct answer
which pair of verbs correctly completes this sentence?
paco ____ enfermo y por eso ____ al médico.
a. estabas, fueron
b. estaba, fue
c. estaba, fui
d. estaban, fuisteis

Explanation:

1. Analyze the subject "Paco" (third - person singular). For the first verb, we need a singular verb. "estabas" is second - person singular, "estaban" is plural, so we can eliminate A and D.
2. For the second part of the sentence "ir al médico" (go to the doctor), the past tense of "ir" for third - person singular is "fue". "lui" is not a form of the verb "ir", so we eliminate C. So the correct pair is "estaba, fue".

Answer:

B. estaba, fue
