Question

Is the following statement true or false?
The present perfect continuous tense shows that something started in the past and is continuing at the present time.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Option A is correct. Consider the following example:

I have been reading since morning.

"Have been reading" is the past perfect continuous form of the infinitive "to read". The tense describes an action (reading) that started sometime in the past and is continuing into the present. It differs from present perfect in that it is used to talk about a continuous, but not necessarily finished action.
