Answer 2

Explanation:

Yes. This tense (present perfect tense) indicates that you lost it in the past, but that there is some “carryover” into the present. The significance of the loss in the present is implied: you need the pencil now to finish something, perhaps.

You can also use the simple past tense — I lost my pencil. This tense indicates no “carryover” into the present. You lost the pencil, and that’s the whole story. It’s over and done with.
