PRIYANKA GHOSH · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : C, Explanation :  The word ever since indicates a past event that has continued into the present, so the first blank should have a past tense verb. The second blank requires a present perfect verb to describe an action that started in the past and is ongoing. Therefore, only choice C, was, has spent, is correct.
