Answer:the meaning of past perfect, continuous,simple perfect .
Any action or an event that started in the recent past and express idea of completion or occurence, in relation to another event, without an exact time of its completion is in the past perfect tense.
Past perfect is also used for actions completed in the recent past, not a very long time ago.
The past perfect tense form of a verb has two parts:
The past tense form of ‘to be’ – known as helping verb or auxillary verb
Past participle form of the main verb.
The structure of the sentence:
Affirmative sentences:-
Subject + helping verb + main verb + object
subject+ had + main verb (in past participle form) + object
Example: Farah had completed her homework.
In case of two events one happening after the other:
Subject + helping verb + (event 1) main verb (past participle form) + link + object + (event 2) main verb (in simple past form)
Example: The sun had set before the party started.
Note that here two events are described
Event 1: The sun set (in past perfect tense)
Event 2: The party began (in simple past tense)
Linking these events: before
Interrogative sentences:-
Helping verb + subject + main verb + object
Have/has + subject + participle form of main verb + object
Example: Had Farah completed her homework?
Negative sentences:-
Subject + helping verb + NOT – main verb + object
Subject + had NOT + participle form of main verb = object
Example: Farah had not completed her homework.

A new generation of super-climbers is pushing the limits in Yosemite
Every rock climber who has come to Yosemite has a dream. Alex Honnold’s dream was to free solo Half Dome, a 2130-foot (649-meter) wall of granite. Free soloing means climbing with only rock shoes and some chalk to help keep the hands dry. Honnold couldn’t use a rope or anything else to help him stick to the slippery stone. The few people who had climbed Half Dome before had used ropes, and it had taken them more than a day to do the climb. On a bright September morning, Honnold was clinging2 to the face of Half Dome, less than 100 feet (30 meters) from the top. He had been climbing for two hours and forty-five minutes, but all of a sudden he stopped. Something potentially disastrous had occurred—he had lost some of his confidence. He hadn’t felt that way two days before when he had been racing up the same rock with a rope. That climb had gone well. Today though, Honnold hesitated. He knew that even the slightest doubt could cause a deadly fall, thousands of feet to the valley floor below. He knew he had to get moving, so he chalked his hands, adjusted his feet, and started climbing again. Within minutes, he was at the top. Bloggers spread the news of Honnold’s two-hour-and-fifty-minute free solo, and climbers were amazed. On this warm fall day, 23-year-old Alex Honnold had just set a new record in one of climbing’s biggest challenges.
