Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Since is usually followed by a time expression ('last year', 'this morning', '4 o' clock' etc) or by a clause in the simple past tense. Use the present perfect or the past perfect in the other clause. Use for when you state the length of time that something has been or had been happening. Ex: We have known each other for ten years (NOT since ten years).
