Answer 2

My key _had been_ stolen. The past perfect tense "had been" is used to indicate an action that occurred before another past action or time. In this case, the theft of the key happened before the time of speaking or before another past action.

I didn't go to the party, because I _hadn't been_ invited. The past perfect tense "hadn't been" is used to indicate that an action (not being invited) did not happen before another past action or time. In this case, the speaker was not invited to the party before the time of speaking or before another past action.

My car _had been_ repaired by yesterday afternoon. The past perfect tense "had been" is used to indicate that an action (the car being repaired) had been completed before another past action or time. In this case, the car was repaired before yesterday afternoon.

Some pictures _had been_ painted. The past perfect tense "had been" is used to indicate that an action (painting the pictures) had been completed before another past action or time. In this case, the pictures were painted before the time of speaking or before another past action.

The past perfect tense is used to establish a sequence of events in the past, highlighting the order in which they occurred. It is formed by using "had" + past participle of the verb.
