Correct answer: C. John has been living in Egypt since 1942.

Explanation

'Since' is used with a fixed point in time (since 1942), and 'for' with a period (for ten years). With the subject 'John', the verb is 'has'. So the correct sentence is John has been living in Egypt since 1942.‘since’ समय के निश्चित बिंदु (since 1942) के साथ और ‘for’ अवधि (for ten years) के साथ आता है। कर्ता ‘John’ के साथ क्रिया ‘has’ होती है। अतः सही वाक्य John has been living in Egypt since 1942 है।
