Correct Answer: has not been and can never be


Solution : The correct choice is the f irst option .

The sentence is in the present perfect continuous tense, and thus "has not" should be replaced with "has not been" to correctly convey the idea that she was not and cannot still be in the good books of her principal.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Sujata has not been and can never be in the good books of her principal as she lacks honesty.
