Detailed Solution

Concept- The present perfect continuous tense is used in phrases to describe an action that started recently and is continuing in progress today.
Option 3 is the appropriate response. The present tense is used in dialogue to describe recent events or happenings. In the suggested solution, the subject and verb also agree.
Options 1, 2, and 4 are erroneous because the verb agreement or the tense do not match the context.
Hence, option 3 is correct.
