Choose the correct option to fill in the blank in the given sentence:

So long as the rain _______, I stayed at home.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 4

The main clause 'I stayed at home' is in the past tense, so the subordinate clause must also be in the past for tense agreement: 'So long as the rain continued, I stayed at home.' Present and future forms clash with 'stayed'.
