Explanation
The correct answer is "gone" because the sentence is in the present perfect tense, which is used to talk about actions that happened in the past but have a connection to the present. In this case, the question is asking about Sam's current whereabouts, implying that he left in the past and is still not present. Therefore, "gone" is the correct verb form to indicate his absence.

The present perfect tense is formed by using the auxiliary verb "have" or "has" followed by the past participle form of the verb.

Jane _______________________ (not be) to the doctor’s since last year.

Correct Answer

The contraction "hasn't" is the short form of "has not" and is used with the pronoun "she" or "he." The phrase "has not been" is the full form of the same contraction and is used with other pronouns like "I," "you," "we," or "they." Both options convey the same meaning, but in different grammatical forms.
