PRESENT PERFECT SIMPLE VS PRESENT PERFECT CONTINUOUS

Present perfect simple: We use it when the result of the action is relevant, important .
Present perfect continuous: We use it to describe how somebody or something has been occupying their time. We also use it for actions which are incomplete or ongoing at the moment of speaking.
EXERCISE 1: Fill the gaps with either the present perfect simple or the present perfect continuous tenses using the verb in brackets.
