答案是(C)...

但since怎麼可以放在has後面阿?
怪怪的

選相對好的，而不是絕對好，
你肯定是BC選一個
那麼B有redundancy的問題，就是C囉

since :from a particular time in the past until a later time, or until now:

Emma went to work in New York a year ago, and we haven't seen her since.
He started working for the company when he left school, and has been there ever since (= and is still there).
I've long since (= long ago) forgotten any Latin I ever learned.

(from Cambridge dictionary)

He lost his job five years ago, but has since found other work

(from longman)

本題考since用法及redundancy
SINCE可當 adv, prep, conj
在此當'後來' adv 修飾 more than, more than 當adv 再修飾 doubled
因double 己含有 increase, 所以兩字同在, 即redundancy , A,B錯
因since , tence即完成式 , D,E錯

[小隻]

sorry, type mistake, tence 應為 tense
