Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. anybody has explored this part.
- As the subject is "anybody" that is singular we need to use the singular verb for it.
- "explored" is a transitive verb so we can not use any preposition after it.
The chosen option follows both the rules so it will be correct.
The correct sentence will be-
This is the first time anybody has explored this part of the country.
