Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The correct helping verb to use is "has" because the sentence is in the present perfect tense, and the past participle of "read" is "read." Therefore, the correct answer is "has read." Option A is incorrect because "read" is already the past participle form - it does not need a "d" added to the end. Option C is incorrect because "have" is not the correct helping verb to use with "Marina's mother" as the subject.
