    given below each sentence to fill in the blanks I have been surfing internet. _________ the last two hours.
    A since Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B for Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C from Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D right from Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The word 'for' is used to show a period of time, be it in the past, present or future.The word 'since' is used to refer to a time that has begun in the past and is still continuing. Use 'from' to mean the starting time and 'to' for the end or finish time. Note: To can be a synonym of until and till so it's perfectly correct to use for with until or till.
