Presente perfecto continuo

Para algo que empezó en el pasado y sigue hasta ahora: have/has been + -ing. En español va en presente — «llevo una hora esperando», «hace una hora que espero» —; en inglés es I have been waiting for an hour. for + cuánto tiempo, since + desde cuándo. Escribe en cada espacio lo que falta del verbo. Ojo: con know, con have (tener) y cuando dices cuántas cosas ya terminaste, va el presente perfecto simple: I have known her for years, I have read four chapters.
