Correct Answer: Had shifted
Solution : The correct choice to fill in the blank is the third option.
When two actions happened in the past, the past perfect tense is used to denote the action that happened earlier than the other. In this case, the action of shifting occurred before it was heard. So it is appropriate to use "had shifted".
Therefore, the complete sentence is: We heard that Richards had shifted their house recently.
