Answer:
Present perfect
Explanation:
The tense of the italicized verb 'have moved' would be present perfect as it denotes a past event/action having its present consequences. <u>Present perfect tense primarily functions to express the actions that took place before now at an unspecified time</u>. It combines the present(through use of 'have') and past(by showing perfection or completion of the action 'moved') and that's how it signals the association between the past and the present. Thus, <em>the use of 'have' followed by past participle signals that present perfect tense is employed in the sentence</em>.
In "The Pit and the Pendulum," the narrator finds himself tied down flat, with a sharp pendulum slowly swinging downwards towards him.
He finds that he is unable to untie himself.
Earlier, he was given food, containing meat, and that food is within his reach, though he is tied down.
He finds rats are in the cell with him, so he devises a plan.
He takes the meat from his dish and rubs it all over the ropes tying him down. The rats then jump up onto him and begin gnawing on the ropes. Eventually, he is able to split the chewed ropes and free himself.
