Consider the passage: “The fast-track has lost much ...
By Sally Kane, About.com Guide
Born in the mid-1980's and later, Generation Y legal professionals are in their 20s and are just entering the workforce. With numbers estimated as high as 70 million, Generation Y (also -1- as the Millennials) is the fastest growing segment of today's workforce. As law firms compete for available talent, employers cannot ignore the needs, desires and attitudes of this vast generation. Below are a few common traits that define Generation Y.
Tech-Savvy: Generation Y grew up with technology and rely on it to perform their jobs better. Armed with BlackBerrys, laptops, cellphones and other gadgets, Generation Y is plugged-in 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This generation prefers to communicate through e-mail and text messaging rather than face-to-face contact and -2- webinars and online technology to traditional lecture-based presentations.
Family-Centric: The fast-track has lost much of its appeal for Generation Y who is willing to trade high pay for fewer billable hours, flexible schedules and a better work/life balance. While older generations may view this attitude as narcissistic or lacking commitment, discipline and drive, Generation Y legal professionals have a different vision of workplace expectations and prioritize family over work.
Achievement-Oriented: Nurtured and pampered -3- parents who did not want to make the mistakes of the previous generation, Generation Y is confident, ambitious and achievement-oriented. They have high expectations of their employers, seek out new challenges and are not afraid to question authority. Generation Y wants meaningful work and a solid learning curve
Team-Oriented: As children, Generation Y participated in team sports, play groups and other group activities. They value teamwork and seek the input and affirmation of others. Part of a no-person-left-behind generation, Generation Y is loyal, committed and wants to be included and involved.
Attention-Craving: Generation Y craves attention in the forms of feedback and guidance. They appreciate being kept in the loop and seek frequent praise and reassurance. Generation Y may benefit greatly from mentors who can help guide and develop their young careers.

Alternativa correta: E - has lost – Present Perfect
Vamos analisar a questão para compreender melhor o tema e os conhecimentos necessários para resolvê-la. A questão pede a identificação do verbo ou locução verbal na frase "The fast-track has lost much of its appeal for Generation Y" e o tempo verbal correspondente.
No contexto da frase, o verbo ou locução verbal é "has lost". Para entender por que a alternativa E está correta, vamos fazer uma análise detalhada:
Análise da Alternativa Correta:
Has lost: Esta é uma locução verbal composta pelo verbo auxiliar "has" + o particípio passado "lost". O tempo verbal aqui é Present Perfect. Este tempo verbal é usado para indicar ações que começaram no passado e têm relevância ou continuidade no presente. A frase "The fast-track has lost much of its appeal for Generation Y" sugere que essa perda de apelo começou no passado e ainda é verdadeira no presente.
Análise das Alternativas Incorretas:
A - lost much – Simple past: Nesta alternativa, "lost" está no Simple Past, mas "much" não faz parte da locução verbal. O Simple Past indica uma ação concluída no passado, diferente do Present Perfect que tem continuidade ou relevância no presente.
B - appeal – Simple Present: A palavra "appeal" é um substantivo, não um verbo, então essa alternativa está incorreta.
C - has lost – Simple Present: Esta alternativa está incorreta porque "has lost" não está no Simple Present, e sim no Present Perfect. O Simple Present seria apenas "loses" (terceira pessoa do singular).
D - lost – Present Perfect: Nesta alternativa, apenas a palavra "lost" foi considerada, mas para ser Present Perfect é necessário o verbo auxiliar "has". Portanto, está incorreta.
Portanto, a alternativa correta é E - has lost – Present Perfect.

Present perfect is grammar tense used rfor denoting an action which started in the past and somehow has some bearing on current affairs, so it's an action which hasn't ended yet, or it might be an issue which is still not settled.
Present perfect é um tempo que não existe no português, embora alguns atribuam o pretérito imperfeito a ele, o que e impreciso porque não são id~enticos. Present perfect é usado para ações inacabadas ou para as quais é irrelevante a marcação de tempo.
na verdade o has é auxiliar apenas, o verbo seria lost, mas está no present perfect tense formando a locução has lost, portanto letra E
The Present - lose / losing / lost
Present Continuous - "I am losing!"
Present Simple - "I usually lose."
Present Perfect Simple - "I have lost a lot of money."
Present Perfect Continuous - "I have Been lost
