The correct answer is 'had gone'.
 
Key Points
  • The verb "had gone" is the past perfect tense form of the verb "go."
  • The past perfect tense is used to describe an action that was completed before another action took place. In this sentence, Zarin had already left (gone out) before the speaker arrived in the office.
  • Options 1, 2, and 4 are grammatically incorrect in this context.
Therefore, the correct answer is Option 3.
 
Complete Sentence: "Zarin had gone out when I arrived in the office."
 
Additional Information
  • Option 1: "gone" is incorrect because it does not fit with the past perfect construction needed here.
  • Option 2: "go" is incorrect because it is in the present tense and does not match the past context of the sentence.
  • Option 4: "has going" is incorrect because it is not a proper verb tense and does not fit grammatically in this context.
