Which contains a past or present perfect tense verb error? a) it has been a great three weeks, but now it's time to come home. b) it is raining for three days now and i'm not sure when it will stop. eliminate c) it has been nice to see you all, and we should make sure we get together again soon. d) it had been a long time since they'd seen each other, but the long lost brothers connected quickly.

I think the correct answer is B. It should say it has been raining

Hi There!

Question - Which contains a past or present perfect tense verb error?

Answer - B) It is raining for three days now and I'm not sure when it will stop.

Why - The reason I state option B is because when the answer says "It is raining for 3 days) that dosen't make any sense and that when you it is it is present tense and the fact that the answer states 3 days is wanting to be past tenses. The correct way is "It has been raining for 3 days now."

Hope This Helps :)

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
