Question

The given statement has some error. From the given options, which is the correct way of writing the given sentence?

She is reading since morning.

• A. She has been reading since morning.
• B. She will have read since morning.
• C. She will have been reading since morning.
• D. She will be reading since morning.

Answer 1

The correct option is A She has been reading since morning.

When we talk about an activity that started sometime in the past and is either continuing in the present or just ended, we use present perfect continuous tense. The words used to denote this tense are ' have/has been' + 'ing' form of the verb.

When the word 'since' is used, it means that the activity has been happening from a specific point of time and is continuing in the present.

So, the correct way of writing the sentence is option A) She has been reading since morning.

All the other options do not comply with the above rules of tenses and are therefore incorrect.
