Question

I have ............. none of the new ministers.

• A. looked
• B. spoke
• C. met
• D. spoken

Answer 1

Answer:

C. met

• The sentence is in the present perfect tense.

• The present perfect tense is formed using has/have + past participle (V3).

• Meet – Met – Met (V1 – V2 – V3).

• Here, met is the past participle of meet.

• The sentence means that I have not met any of the new ministers.

Why the other options are incorrect:

• Looked – The verb look does not fit the intended meaning.

• Spoke – The past participle is spoken, but speak to is normally used when referring to talking with someone.

• Spoken – Although it is a past participle, the sentence would require spoken to to convey the intended meaning.
