Question

Replace the underlined verb with the correct verb form, if necessary:

This sauce is great. It's tasting really good.

• A. has tasted
  
• B. tastes
• C. has been tasting
  
• D. no change
  

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

tastes

Option A is incorrect because ‘has tasted’ is the past tense, while the statement is in the present tense.

Option C is incorrect because ‘has been tasting’ means that it used to taste good and still does, which is incorrect because the sauce was made in the present.

Hence, option B is the correct answer because you use ‘it tastes good’ when you describe something in the present.
