Concept/Grammar rules |

It is an ‘abstract’ sentence which tells about the Nature of human beings. Hence, use of ‘had’ and ‘is having’ is incorrect. ‘Man’ is singular noun so use of ‘have’ is also incorrect. |
Hence, ‘has’ will be used here as helping verb after ‘Man’. Hence, correct sentence: Man has a strong desire to accumulate wealth. |
