Объяснение:

Wish используется, когда речь идет о желаниях, как правило, нереальных, — в настоящем и прошлом: «Хотелось бы, чтобы это было так» (но это не так).

 После wish нельзя использовать глагол в настоящем времени.

*   Если речь идет о настоящем времени, то после wish употребляется глагол в Past Simple.

*   Если речь идет о прошлом, то после wish употребляется глагол в Past Perfect. Обычно так выражается сожаление о том, что произошло в прошлом.
