Answer 2

The correct answer is option (b) have not drunk.

I have not drunk anything since breakfast, so I feel thirsty now.

• In the above question, we have to use the correct form of the verb 'drink'.
• The given sentence is in the perfect perfect tense.
• The present perfect tense is used to describe an action that occurred in the past but has not been finished yet and will probably finish as we speak.
• The present perfect tense is represented as - has/have + past participle of the verb.
• For example- 'We have known each since 10 years.
• In the given sentence the past participle of the verb 'drink' will be 'drunk'.
• The -ing form of a verb is used with present continuous tense. So option (a) is incorrect
• Option(d) is incorrect because 'did' is not used in the present tense. The present tense forms are 'does' and 'do'.
• Option (c) is incorrect as 'do' is used with the simple present tense.

Hence, the correct option is (b) have not drunk.
