Correct Answer: large crowd has gathered from yesterday


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

In the given context, from should be replaced with since to indicate the point in time.

Since is commonly used to indicate a point in time from which an action or state began. It is often used with perfect tenses (present perfect, past perfect) to show the starting point of an action.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "It's 4 p.m. local time and quite a large crowd has gathered since yesterday evening around the giant stage."
