Which sentence uses present perfect tense?

• A. I have lived in the city for 5 years.
• B. I lived in the city for 5 years.
• C. I am living in the city for 5 years.
• D. I will live in the city for 5 years.

Answer: (A)

The sentence uses the present perfect to connect a past situation to the present. It is formed with have/has plus the past participle, here “have lived.” The time expression “for five years” signals duration that begins in the past and continues up to now, which is a hallmark of this tense.

The other options either describe a completed past period (simple past), describe an ongoing action right now without signaling its duration up to the present (present continuous), or express a future action (future).
