Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Has been waiting for you.
Concept-
- We need to replace 'waits to you' with 'has been waiting for you' for making the statement grammatically correct.
- When it is known from when the action has been started, perfect continuous tenses are used.
- Since it has been mentioned that the waiting is going on for two hours, perfect continuous tense is appropriate.
- Also, 'wait' takes 'for' after it not 'to'.
The correct sentence will be-
He has been waiting for you for about two hours.
