Advanced Grammar in Use, Hewings M., 2002.

   The book is intended for more advanced students of English. It is written mainly as a self-study book, but might also be used in class with a teacher. It revises some of the more difficult points of grammar that you will have already studied - such as when to use the, a/an or no article, and when to use the past simple or the present perfect - but will also introduce you to many more features of English grammar appropriate to an advanced level of study.

Advanced Grammar in Use, Hewings M., 2002


Present perfect continuous (I have been doing).
We use the present perfect continuous to talk about a situation or activity that started in the past and has been in progress for a period until now. Sometimes we use the present perfect continuous with expressions that indicate the time period (e.g. with since and for):
I’ve been meaning to phone Jack since I heard he was back in the country.
The competition has been running every year since 1980.
She's been living in New Zealand for over a year now.
People have been saying for ages that the building should be pulled down.

Without such an expression, the present perfect continuous refers to a recent situation or activity and focuses on its present results:
Look! It's been snowing.
’You’re looking well.' 'I've been playing a lot of squash to lose weight.'
Haven't seen anything of Rod for a while.' 'No, he’s been working in Germany.'
