Question : Directions: In the following question, a sentence is given with a blank that is to be filled in with an appropriate word. Four alternatives are suggested; choose the correct alternative out of them as your answer.
I bought a new TV last month, but I _____ my old TV yet, so at present I have two TVs.
Option 1: has not sell
Option 2: have not sold
Option 3: have sold
Option 4: am selling
Correct Answer: have not sold
Solution : The second option is the correct choice.
Explanation : Have not sold uses the present perfect tense to indicate that the action of selling the old TV has not been completed up to the present moment. The sentence is in the past tense, and it discusses an action related to selling the old TV.
The option has not sell is grammatically incorrect; have sold doesn't use negation as per context, and am selling doesn't match the tense of the sentence as per parallelism.
Therefore, the complete sentence is: "I bought a new TV last month, but I have not sold my old TV yet, so at present I have two TVs."
