The correct answer is '2' i.e. "I have meet." It should be replaced with "I have met."

Key Points

  • The verb "meet" is incorrectly used in the present perfect tense. The correct past participle of "meet" is "met."
  • The present perfect tense is formed using "have/has" + past participle of the verb.
  • The phrase "I have meet" should be corrected to "I have met."
  • Additionally, the phrase "the day after tomorrow" is incorrect in this context, as the present perfect tense refers to a completed action, not a future event.

Correct sentence: I will meet my close friend the day after tomorrow in his native place.

Additional Information

  • Present Perfect Tense:
    • Structure: Subject + have/has + past participle.
    • Example: I have finished my homework.
    • Usage: Describes actions that have been completed recently or have an impact on the present.
  • Future Tense:
    • Structure: Subject + will + base verb.
    • Example: I will meet him tomorrow.
    • Usage: Describes actions that will happen in the future.
