Question : Parts of the following sentence have been underlined and given as options. Select the option that contains an error.
Have they been work in that particular shop for several years?
Option 1: work
Option 2: been
Option 3: for
Option 4: Have
Correct Answer: work
Solution : The first opti on is the correct choice.
Explanation : The correct sentence uses the present participle form "working" after the auxiliary verb "have." When forming the present perfect continuous tense, we use "have/has been" followed by the present participle (verb + ing). In this case, "working" is the correct present participle form of the verb "work".
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "Have they been working in that particular shop for several years?"
