Question

Answer

Explanation:
The correct answer is option 'D': 'This plane has been flown by me for seven years.' Let's break down the explanation for each option and why option 'D' is the correct choice.

a) This plane is flying me for seven years:
This sentence implies that the plane is the one doing the flying, and it has been flying the person for seven years. However, the intended meaning is that the person has been flying the plane for seven years, so this option is incorrect.

b) I am flying this plane for seven years:
This sentence suggests that the person is currently flying the plane and has been doing so for seven years. However, the original sentence states that the person has flown the plane for seven years, which implies that the action has been completed. Therefore, this option is not the correct choice.

c) Seven years have happened since I have been flying this plane:
This sentence is grammatically incorrect. The use of 'since' implies that seven years have passed since the person started flying the plane, but the original sentence does not provide any information about when the person started flying the plane. Additionally, the use of present perfect continuous tense ('have been flying') does not convey the idea of completion. Therefore, this option is incorrect.

d) This plane has been flown by me for seven years:
This option accurately conveys the intended meaning of the original sentence. The use of present perfect passive voice ('has been flown') indicates that the action of flying the plane has been completed over a period of seven years. The subject of the sentence is the plane, and the person is the agent ('by me'). Therefore, option 'D' is the correct choice.

In summary, option 'D' is the correct answer because it accurately reflects the original sentence's meaning in terms of completion and passive voice construction.
