... you won the race?

Having
Correct Answer
A. HaveExplanation
The correct answer is "have" because it is the correct form of the verb "to have" in the present tense when used with the pronoun "you."

"Had" is the past tense form of "have" and "having" is a gerund form, which is not appropriate in this context.Rate this question:
