2971. He has been working _ this project for weeks.

• A. At
• B. By
• C. To
• D. On

Explanation: The correct answer is 'on', as it is used to indicate that someone is engaged in a task or project. In this context, 'working on this project' implies that the individual is actively participating in the project over a period of time. The other options are incorrect for the following reasons: 'At' is used for locations and does not fit the context of a project. 'By' does not convey the idea of engagement with a project and is not idiomatic in this usage. 'To' suggests a direction or goal rather than the ongoing work itself. Therefore, 'on' is the most appropriate preposition in this scenario.

2980. Choose the correct option: Knowledge and wisdom _ no time for connection.

• A. Has
• B. Have
• C. Had
• D. Are

Explanation: The context of the sentence firstly requires a verb that satisfies the need to indicate the possession of "no time for connection" by "Knowledge and wisdom." Therefore the verb forms "is/am/are" which indicate "being" are not suitable here - eliminating Option D. Moreover, since the need for "no time" is being stated as a universal statement (everlasting) i.e. started in the past and continues to be true in the present, the tense should be present perfect. Hence, the verb form should include the helping verb "Have" as indicated by Option B.
