  • A Is arrived
  • B Will be arriving
  • C Has arrived
  • D Had arrived
  • E Has been arriving
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
Explanation:
"Has arrived" is in the present perfect tense, which is used for actions that occurred at an unspecified time before now and are still relevant. The word "yet" is commonly used with the present perfect to indicate something expected to happen.

Why the other options are incorrect:

A. is arrived – Incorrect. "Arrive" is not used with "is" in this context.

B. will be arriving – Incorrect. This is future continuous and does not work with "yet."

D. had arrived – Incorrect. This is past perfect, which is used when one past action happens before another past action.

E. has been arriving – Incorrect. Present perfect continuous is not suitable for a single completed action like arriving.
