Tense

• In the given sentence, we need to choose the correct tense from the options and fill in the blanks.

• If the sentence had been in the present tense, then 'has been raining' would be the answer.

• However, the sentence speaks of a situation in the past when 'you' rang 'me' up. Thus it takes the past perfect continuous tense.
