    Question

    Choose the correct alternative out of four options for the part of the sentence given in quotes:
    The gas 'is being seeping' out of the rocks.

    Is seeping

    B.

    Is seep

    C.

    Was being seeping

    D.

    No improvement

    Correct option is A

    The correct option is (a) Is seeping.
    Explanation: The correct verb form should be "is seeping," which follows the correct present continuous tense pattern. "Is being seeping" is incorrect as "being" is redundant here.
    Example: Water is seeping through the cracks.
    Meanings of other options:

    Was being seeping: Incorrect tense combination.
