The sentences have been rewritten below in the present perfect continuous tense:

  • 1. I have been learning English for 3 years now.
  • 2. What green paint have you been doing on your hair?
  • 3. They have been working all day.
  • 4. How long has your little sister been playing football?
  • 5. We have been driving this car for 3 hours.
  • 6. He had been swimming in the cold swimming pool.
  • 7. They have been talking on the phone for hours.
  • 8. We have been reading in the library all afternoon.
  • 9. The baby has been crying all day.
  • 10. I am not having a good time in this new school.

The present perfect continuous tense is used to show that an action from the past has continued up to now.

It usually follows the pattern, Subject + an auxiliary verb in the present tense + an auxiliary verb in the past tense + a present participle.

An example is, "They have been working all day."

"They" is the subject, "have", and "been" are the auxiliary verbs in the present and past tenses while working is a present participle.

Which is a minor theme in “the land”
azamat

Answer:

Education can counter inequality.

Explanation:

Mildred D. Taylor's "The Land" revolves around the life of Edward Paul-Logan, a mixed child of a white father and a black woman. Narrated from the perspective of Paul, the plot continues to follow Paul through his childhood as a mix-raced child, and his relationship with everyone, including Mitchell, the son of his father's worker.

While the whole of the story's main theme rests on the issue of inequality, especially between the whites and the blacks, it also deals a lot with friendship, loyalty, and family. And <u>one minor theme that can also be found in the novel is that of education as a means to counter inequality</u>. This is evident in both Paul and his friend Mitchell, who made promises to teach each other what they know- Paul will teach Mitchell how to read and write while Mitchell will, in turn, teach Paul how to fight and fend for himself. This way, both characters exhibit the theme of education as a means to counter inequality among themselves.
