Answer 3

1. The correct answer is "was". Explanation: The sentence mentions that there isn't a cloud in the sky, indicating a present tense. However, it also states that it was cloudy in the morning, which suggests a past tense. In this case, the past tense of "be" is "was" when referring to a singular subject, which is the case here with "it". Therefore, the correct answer is "was".

2. The correct answer is "finished". Explanation: The sentence mentions that Mrs. Clay usually finishes her work at half past three, indicating a present tense. However, it also states that she finished it later yesterday afternoon, suggesting a past tense. In this case, since the action of finishing her work is completed in the past, the past tense form of the verb "finish" is used, which is "finished". Therefore, the correct answer is "finished".
