Explanation:

- Original Sentence: Sunil have been working as a personal assistant to the Director for two years.

- Underlined Segment: "have been working"

- Option 1: "is working" - This option changes the tense to present continuous, which is not appropriate for indicating a specific duration of two years.

- Option 2: "has been worked" - This is grammatically incorrect as it mixes present perfect and passive voice incorrectly.

- Option 3: "No substitution" - Suggests the sentence is already correct, which it isn’t due to subject-verb agreement.

- Option 4: "has been working" - Corrects the subject-verb agreement error, making it present perfect continuous, which is appropriate here to show an ongoing action for two years.
