إجابة الطالب المختصرة من خلال موقع بوابة الإجابات هي
had started.
The correct answer is **had started**.
* **Had started** is the past perfect tense, which is used to describe an action that was completed before another action in the past. In this sentence, the eating started and was completed before he arrived.
*Example: By the time he arrived, we *had started* eating.*
* **Started** is past tense, which is used to describe actions that occurred and completed in the past, but it doesn't indicate which action happened first.
*Example: By the time he arrived, we *started* eating.* (*started* eating when he arrived.)
* **Have started** is present perfect tense, which is used to describe actions that started in the past and continue into the present or have relevance to the present.
*Example: By the time he arrived, we *have started* eating.* (grammatically incorrect, as the action has stopped now that he has arrived.)
Therefore, **had started** is the most suitable choice in this sentence.
