- A.
  
  Past Simple
- B.
  
  Present Continuous
- C.
  
  Present Perfect Continuous
- D.
  
  Past Perfect
Correct Answer
C. Present Perfect Continuous

Explanation
The correct answer is C) Present Perfect Continuous. This tense is used to describe actions or situations that started in the past, continued for a period leading up to the present, and may still be ongoing. It is formed with the present tense of "have" (have/has), the past participle of the main verb (usually in its base form), and the word "been" followed by the present participle (ing form) of the main verb. For example: "I have been studying English for two hours" implies that the studying started in the past, continued, and is still happening in the present.
