(CPCON UEPB) - QUESTÃO

The sentence “…the attention has been focused more on technology than learning” is an example of:

Ⓐ Past Simple Tense.

Ⓑ Present Perfect Continuous Tense.

Ⓒ Past Perfect Tense

Ⓓ Past Perfect Continuous Tense.

Ⓔ Present Perfect Tense.

Let's carefully analyze the sentence:

“…the attention has been focused more on technology than learning.”

1. The verb phrase is "has been focused".

   • "Has" indicates present perfect.

   • "Been" + past participle ("focused") indicates passive voice.

2. The present perfect tense is used to describe an action that started in the past and has relevance to the present.

3. It is not continuous, because there's no "-ing" form of the main verb being used as an action in progress.

Therefore, the correct answer is: e) Present Perfect Tense.
