Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The simple past tense 'started' is correct because this describes a completed action in the past. 'Has started' (present perfect) would connect it to the present, which is not appropriate here. 'Had started' (past perfect) would require another past event to relate to, and 'has been starting' is not grammatically correct.
