Explanation
The correct answer is "étions devenus." In French, the plus-que-parfait tense is used to express an action that occurred before another past action. In this case, the verb "devenir" (to become) is conjugated in the plus-que-parfait tense for the subject "nous" (we). Therefore, "étions devenus" is the correct conjugation for "nous" in the plus-que-parfait tense of "devenir."

Explanation
The correct answer is "s'étaient couchées." In French, the plus-que-parfait tense is used to express an action that happened before another past action. In this case, the subject is "elles" (they) and the verb is "se coucher" (to go to bed). To form the plus-que-parfait, we use the auxiliary verb "être" in the imparfait tense (s'étaient) followed by the past participle of the main verb (couchées). Therefore, "s'étaient couchées" is the correct conjugation of "se coucher" in the plus-que-parfait tense for the subject "elles."

Explanation
The correct answer is "avait appris" because "avait" is the past tense of the verb "avoir" (to have) and "appris" is the past participle of the verb "apprendre" (to learn). In the plus-que-parfait tense, we use the auxiliary verb "avoir" in the imperfect tense (avait) followed by the past participle (appris) to indicate an action that had been completed in the past before another past action or event. Therefore, "avait appris" correctly expresses the past perfect tense for the subject "il" (he/she/it) and the verb "apprendre" (to learn).

Explanation
The correct answer is "aviez mis." In French, the plus-que-parfait tense is used to express an action that occurred before another past action. In this case, the verb "mettre" (to put) is conjugated in the plus-que-parfait tense for the pronoun "vous" (you). The correct conjugation for "vous" in the plus-que-parfait tense is "aviez mis."

Explanation
The correct answer is "étaient arrivés" because "plus-que-parfait" is a past tense in French that is used to express an action that occurred before another past action. In this case, the verb "arriver" (to arrive) is conjugated in the "ils" form, so the correct conjugation in the "plus-que-parfait" tense is "étaient arrivés." This means "they had arrived" in English.

Explanation
The correct answer is "nous étions lavés." In French, the plus-que-parfait tense is used to express an action that had already happened before another past action. In this case, the subject "nous" (we) is being referred to, and the verb "se laver" (to wash oneself) is being used. The correct form of the verb in the plus-que-parfait tense for "nous" is "étions lavés." This means that "we had washed ourselves" or "we had been washed."

Explanation
The correct answer is "avoir mangé." In this sentence, Sophie arrived home after having eaten in the city. The verb "avoir" is used in the auxiliary form to indicate that the action of eating (manger) was completed before Sophie arrived home.

Explanation
The correct answer is "nous être promenés". In French, when using the passé composé (past tense) with the verb "aller" (to go), we need to use the auxiliary verb "être" (to be) and the past participle of the main verb. In this case, the main verb is "se promener" (to take a walk). Since the subject is "nous" (we), the past participle needs to agree in gender and number, so it becomes "promenés" (masculine plural).

Explanation
The correct answer is "s'être levée" because it agrees with the subject "elle" and the past participle "levée" is used to form the passé composé with the reflexive pronoun "se". This construction is necessary because the verb "lever" is reflexive in this context, indicating that the subject is performing the action on herself. Therefore, the correct form is "s'être levée" to match the feminine singular subject "elle".

Explanation
The correct answer is "avoir reçu" because it is the correct past participle of the verb "recevoir" (to receive) in the compound tense "passé composé" when used with the auxiliary verb "avoir" (to have). In this sentence, it indicates that the speaker is happy about having received their high school diploma.

Explanation
The correct answer is "être allés". In this sentence, "Ils sont contents d'être allés en France" means "They are happy to have gone to France." The verb "aller" is in the infinitive form, and it needs to be conjugated in the past participle form to agree with the subject "ils" (they) and the auxiliary verb "être" (to be). Therefore, "être allés" is the correct conjugation in this context.
