Question

He __________ in the States, but he still does not have a command over the English language. a) have been living b) has been living c) have lived d) living

Answer 1

Answer:

Has been living

Explanation:

With this, you have to use the present perfect continuous; has been living

Observe this;

The verb We are going to use is; Live

I have been living

You have been living

He has been living

She has been living

They have been living

We have been living

You (plural) have been living

So when you observe clearly you can see that He matches with has been living that's why we would have to go with that.

Answer 2

Answer:

He has been living in the States, but he still does not have a command over the English language

Explanation:

In this exercise, you have to select the correct option to complete the sentence given. In this case, the correct option is "a" because "has been living" implies that this person is still living in the States. The present perfect continuous is used when you want to talk about something that started and may not be concluded yet.

"Have been living" is not correct (although it's the same tense) because "he" it's not plural.
