Penjelasan:

Soal bagian I

Present perfect continuous dibentuk dengan struktur:

subjek + have/has + been + verb+ing + objek/keterangan dst

have/has dipakai tergantung siapa subjek kalimatnya

have => kalau subjek kalimatnya I, You, We, They atau plural noun (the dogs, my parents, two boys, three people dst)

has => kalau subjek kalimatnya: He, she, it, atau singular noun (my friend, a dog, a teacher dst)

since: sejak

for: selama

jadi pilih sesuai konteks kalimat

Soal bagian II

Bagian jawaban adalah yang digarisbawahi, maka gunakan kata tanya yang relevan dengan itu. Misalnya soal nomor 1 yang digarisbawahi adalah immediately (segera), maka pertanyaan yang cocok adalah: seberapa cepat/segera (how soon)

Soal nomor 6 yang digarisbawahi adalah since an hour ago (sejak sejam lalu) maka pertanyaan yang relevan adalah: seberapa lama (how long)

Semoga bermanfaat, tetap semangat.
