EnglishFill in the Blanks
- Ahave been
- Bhas been
- Cis
- Dhad been
Explanation
"Since morning" marks an action continuing from a past point up to the present, which requires the present perfect continuous: "has been waiting". The third-person singular subject "He" requires "has", not "have". "Is waiting since morning" is ungrammatical with "since", and "had been" (past perfect) mismatches the present time frame. Hence option B.
