Solution

The correct answer is a) had already landed.

This is because the action of the plane landing was completed before "we got to Terminal 2". The past perfect tense (had + past participle) is used to show that an action was completed before another action in the past.

Option b) "had already been landing" is incorrect because the past perfect continuous tense is used to show that an action was ongoing until another action occurred. This would imply that the plane was in the process of landing when we got to Terminal 2, which is not the case.

Option c) "already landed" is incorrect because it does not use the past perfect tense to show that the landing was completed before we arrived.

Option d) "was already landing" is incorrect because the past continuous tense is used to show that an action was ongoing at a specific time in the past. This would imply that the plane was in the process of landing when we got to Terminal 2, which is not the case.
